Candy Cane Course- Chattanooga

The Candy Cane Course-Chattanooga is an annual Christmas-themed running event held at Camp Jordan in East Ridge, Tennessee, near Chattanooga. The in-person event offers families and runners several options: a Kids Dash, an untimed 1 Mile, a 5K, a 10K, and a 15K, along with a Volunteer then Run choice. Races begin in the morning after packet pickup. Timed distances feature chip timing with live results and awards. A virtual race is also available for those who want the shirt, medal, and race-day atmosphere but cannot attend in person. The event is designed for mixed groups, not just a single category of runners. Children 10 and under may participate in the Kids Dash for free if they forgo the swag; youth pricing is available for the 5K and 10K. Standard registration includes a custom bib, shirt, and finisher medal, while the Kids Dash package includes a mini bib, youth-sized shirt, and a distinct medal. Complimentary participant photos and finish-line refreshments enhance the holiday-race setting, making the day suitable for first-time runners, families with children, walkers in the shorter races, and participants seeking a December 5K, 10K, or 15K.
