Jingle Bell 5K/10K

The Bill Rodgers Somerville Jingle Bell Run & Walk begins at 11am in Davis Square, completing a 5K loop through Somerville before returning to the start. This event is a winter run/walk, not exclusively for fast runners, and the Davis Square start provides a neighborhood atmosphere from the outset. The route follows Somerville streets and squares, concluding back at its origin. Following the finish, participants proceed to local bars for the post-race gathering. This marks the event's 46th year, and with entries selling out well in advance annually, it attracts a crowd that prepares ahead of time.
