Merry Mitchmas is a 5K and 10K race held in Mitch Park, Edmond, Oklahoma, with the start and finish at 1501 W Covell Road. Red Coyote organizes this winter running event, offering two straightforward options: a single 3.1-mile loop for the 5K, or two loops for the 6.2-mile 10K. This is the race's third annual edition, and it has quickly become Red Coyote Running's largest and most popular event.
The course is a clockwise loop on the Mitch Park Rec Trail, featuring gently rolling terrain suitable for beginners, families, and experienced runners alike. The holiday theme contributes to its appeal, including a half-mile kids dash, a post-race hot cocoa bar, and an opportunity to meet Santa. This race is considered a family-friendly seasonal favorite locally, and organizers note that it typically sells out.
