About Santa Runs Palm Springs

We're excited to announce that the Santa Paws 5K is now the Santa Runs Palm Springs! The event you all love with a new twist!

This unique 5K event invites every participant to be Santa Claus! Each registered participant will receive a full Santa suit to wear during the event, which you can then keep.

Join us to run, walk, or stroll the 5K (3.1-mile) route. Strollers and dogs are welcome to participate!

For children 10 and under, we offer a 200-meter Elf Dash. Entry for the children's event is $15 and includes a finisher medal.

Everyone is welcome—runners, walkers, strollers, and dogs—for a morning filled with holiday cheer and plenty of Ho! Ho! Ho's!
