The YMCA’s Santa Run Returns for 2021
Get ready to dress as a jolly fat man for the 2021 Santa Run in Flint.
Back in my younger days, I use to love living in Michigan because we really get the full treatment when it comes to the weather. Nowadays, old bitter me is not a fan of the cold, wintery weather, however, events like this still get me excited to go outside.
The 2021 Santa Run with the YMCA is such a cool thing for the family to take part in. Each person running a race receives a Santa suit to wear along with a finisher medal. On top of that, racers can enjoy all the milk and cookies they can handle. Don't worry if you're on a diet. You will be dressed as Santa and that's what he eats...commit to the role.
What length races are offered for the 2021 Santa Run?
If you plan to dress in the infamous red and white suit, you have several different race options to choose from. Check them out below:
- The 5K Run/Walk sponsored by Al Serra Auto Plaza - $30
- The One Mile Run/Walk - $30
- The 1/4 Mile Reindeer Run - $10
- Child Entry (12 years and younger) for One Mile or 5K Events - $15
Participants also have the option to run the races virtually this year as well. The Virtual 5K or One Mile Santa Run costs $33 per racer.
The 2021 Santa Run also offers another way for you to give back this holiday season. The YMCA will also be collecting donations for Toys for Tots. Those donations can be made when you pick up your Santa suit or on race day.
