About this race
The Monroe Jingle Bell Run is a December road race in Monroe, Louisiana, featuring a 5K and a half marathon. Both races begin and end at Forsythe Park. The half marathon commences early, with the 5K starting later in the morning. The event emphasizes holiday spirit, family involvement, and fundraising for local Scouting programs, rather than an elite competition.
The course follows paved paths along the lakefront and within Forsythe Park. Its predominantly flat terrain suits beginners, walkers, families with strollers, and those aiming for a quick finish. The Louisiana Purchase Council and Scouting America present the event, directing proceeds to support Scouts in Northeast and Central Louisiana, youth programs for at-risk individuals, and scholarships for Camp T.L. James and Camp Attakapas. Participants are invited to bring an unwrapped toy for the Christmas for Kids drive. The race venue includes festive elements such as bells, music, volunteer-staffed aid stations, and opportunities for photos with Santa and Mrs. Claus.
