Jingle Bell Run for Charity

The Traverse City Track Club (TCTC) annual Jingle Bell 5K Run/Walk on December 19, celebrating running during the holidays, is open for registration right up until race day. The race is one of northern Michigan’s main, holiday, non-competitive, running events, with as many as 1,000 runners and walkers joining together to run dressed in holiday attire. The run begins at 5 p.m. at the Workshop Brewing Company.

            The Jingle Bell Run supports an area nonprofit cause, and this year participants will have the option to donate to the TCTC Golden Shoe Fund, a TCTC program established in 2007 that partners with Running Fit to help area high school track and cross-country runners facing financial hardship to obtain shoes necessary for safe running. This year’s Golden Shoe fundraising goal is $2,000.
