Event Information

The Arthritis Foundation’s original Jingle Bell Run is a fun way to get decked out and be festive, while racing to raise funds and awareness to cure America’s #1 cause of disability. 

          

This year all jinglers get our signature long-sleeve tee, a finisher medal, First Watch Coffee and morning snacks, a Papa John's Pizza finish, and a holiday inspired Jim Beam Cocktail for those 21+ (hot chocolate for the kids) in the after party tent!
