Ugly Sweater 5K 2026

The Ugly Sweater 5K is a Christmas-themed fun run in Washington, Utah. It starts and finishes at the fishing pond pavilion at Sullivan Virgin River Soccer Park on Washington Fields Road. This 5K is designed for families and children, offering a family entry category for groups of up to six. Participants are encouraged to wear the ugliest sweater they can find. The course incorporates holiday activities at each kilometer marker. Runners will encounter tinsel, Christmas trees, snowballs, and candy canes, with a Santa selfie stop along the route. The event benefits Tan's Treats, a local nonprofit, connecting the day to supporting children as much as to running in festive attire.
