Santa's Run through the Lights 5K Run/Walk

Santa's Run through the Lights 5K Run/Walk is an evening holiday race in Geneva, Illinois, based on Cherry Lane and starting at 8 p.m. Runners and walkers can choose a timed or untimed 5K, and there is also a virtual 5K option for people who want to join remotely. The event is set up for families as well as adults: kids 11 and under have their own 5K fun run, and younger children can enter a free 100-meter dash. Participants are encouraged to share photos with #SantasRun, which fits the race’s night-time, holiday-lights setup.
