About the JINGLE JOG
The Jingle Jog runs on Christmas Eve morning out of the city gym, and the holiday costume spirit is real. People show up in festive gear, and the shorter distance option draws plenty of families treating it as a pre-holiday outing rather than a tune-up race.
Cookies and milk are set up at the finish line. There is also a Grinch challenge built into the main distance, where early finishers who beat a posted pace walk away with a holiday mug. Packet pickup and the start are both at the gym on Market Street.
