Toledo Zoo Polar Paws & Santa Claws 5K 2026

The Polar Paws & Santa Claws 5K is a holiday-themed 5K hosted by the Toledo Zoo. The name reflects the zoo setting, inviting runners and walkers to 'move your paws' rather than approaching it as a serious race. The available details highlight the event experience over the course. Registrants receive a custom bib. Early sign-ups can get a collectible medal, wearable swag, and a collectible cup. These items are limited to the first several hundred entrants.
