Are you ready to get your Elf on this holiday season? Grab your festive holiday costumes and Run, Walk, Stroll or Jingle all the Way and see the twinkling holiday lights as you wind your way through the streets of Key West. We will start at the beautiful Lobster Trap Christmas Tree on Margaret Street and end with a Christmas post-race party at Dante's Key West Pool Bar.
Make this event your new favorite tradition with charity partner Reef Relief and help bring together the community in a whimsical display of Elf cheer.
Not Ready for a 5K. No Problem. Check out the Jingle Bell Mile.
