Mistletoe Run
Organizer's Description
REGISTRATION OPENS JUNE 1ST!
Join us for the most wonderful run of the year!
Kick off the holiday season with the YMCA's largest annual fundraiser, The Mistletoe Run! The Mistletoe Run is a family friendly and community centered event. In addition to our Half Marathon, 5K and 1 mile Fun Run courses, we also have bounce houses, food trucks, vendors, community mascots, local cheerleaders, athletes, donuts at the Finish Line and more. Every participant receives a race shirt, our 5K and Half Marathoners will receive a Finisher Medal, and our Fun Run participants will receive a Finisher ribbon at the end of their race.
Our Course
The Mistletoe Run is a USATF sanctioned course and begins and ends at the William G White Jr Family YMCA in downtown Winston-Salem, NC. Our 5K runners travel through Winston-Salem’s beautiful Buena Vista neighborhood, while the half marathon course will continue through the Graylyn International Conference Center, Reynolda House and Gardens, through Reynolda Village, onto Wake Forest University’s campus, then circle back around to the Y.
Our Cause
At the YMCA, we believe every child deserves a healthy & active life. We are proud to share that all race proceeds benefit the young people in our community by providing funding for YMCA swim lessons, summer camp, youth sports, before & after school care, teen memberships & more. Our programs build self-confidence, friendships & community while also teaching our young people how to live healthier lives.
