The 4th annual running of the Santas! 12/14/24

This year we are bigger and better than ever! A 1 mile and 5k! Through historic downtown Middletown.

 

Come to run dressed as the big guy and stay a while to enjoy the ice rink, restaurants and shopping specials downtown! This year the Santas will line up at the Gravel Road Brewing Company! Take off from the Brewery and jump on the bike path, before looping back through one of Downtown Middletown's most beautiful and historic neighborhoods on South Main Street!

 

Every participant will receive a Santa hat, unique keepsake Christmas ornament, and a "$3 dollar off" ticket at the Groovy Sweets Food Truck for running/walking in the Santa run!

We would love to see all our runners dressed up as Santa, and of course there is a prize for the jolliest looking Santa at the event!
Our fastest Santas in the 5k, male and female will be awarded!

 

We knew we couldn't have a bunch of santas running around without providing his favorite snack! Therefore to keep all you Santas fueled properly, our elves have stocked up for a milk and cookie aid station! Located at the turn around for the 1 milers, water will be available also.

 

We will have the Groovy Treats Food Truck at the finish line for a delicious sweet treat and hot drinks before or after the event! All runners will get a $3 off ticket in their packets! Use it on any item you want! Hot Chocolate, Hot cider, or one of their famous "croffles" or mini pancakes! For our adult Santas Gravel Road Brewing will have Half off your first beer! 

 

The registration fee is $25!
