About the Boley Centers' 44th Annual Jingle Bell Run
The Jingle Bell Run is an untimed evening event through downtown St. Petersburg, decorated with holiday lights and accompanied by live local bands along the route. Dogs are welcome, and the atmosphere is more neighborhood block party than race. Food trucks are on hand, and beer, wine, and frozen boozy pops are available at the finish.
Packet pickup is available at several local running shops and at the Boley Centers' own locations in the weeks leading up to the event, with the option to have your packet shipped. There is also a registration tent on the night itself. A nearby parking garage on First Avenue South is the recommended spot.
