Princeton, NJ
This one starts and ends at a running store, and the crowd tends to look a lot alike: most people show up in Santa suits, which is exactly the point. The route is a holiday fun run at your own pace, with the feel of a neighborhood costume parade as much as a race. There are raffle entries in the mix for those who stick around after.
