The Jingle Bell Run/Walk is a 5K run/walk and a 1.5-mile fun run/walk through beautiful Downtown Lexington, Virginia. Runners and walkers of all abilities are welcome. Festive attire and costumes for people and for pets are encouraged!

All 5K entrants will receive a chip-timed bib and mini-sleigh bells to fix to their running shoes. All 1.5-mile entrants will receive an untimed bib and mini sleigh bells as well. Come on out and jingle your way through town! Stay for the Tot Trot and our Raffle featuring dozens of gift certificates and prizes from our local shops and restaurants. A custom-made fleece headband is included in the price for all pre-registered runners & walkers (over 10 years of age) and unique awards will be distributed to the top-three overall Male and Female winners.
