12 Days of Memphis Christmas: Ugly Sweater Run

  
What are your plans for December 21st? Might I suggest running the Ugly Sweater 5K Fun Run! We participated in this event last year and while I'm super bummed we can't go this year, I need to live vicariously through all of you!

Everyone puts on the tackiest Christmas sweaters they can find and run (or walk) through Shelby Farms. There's Christmas music, decorations, hot chocolate stations, and the most amazing people watching ever. People get realllllly into their outfits! After the race, there's a party to celebrate the holidays! There's beer (because isn't that what everyone wants after a race?), festive snacks, and contests. The contests include things such as best mustache and best sweater.

Here's my recap from last year's Ugly Sweater Run!


It's a fun way to really get in the Christmas spirit. So, grab some friends and sign up to run this race!
