About the KRINGLE JINGLE RUN: 10K, 5K AND KIDS K
The course runs through a residential neighborhood and passes by the Albuquerque Country Club, starting and finishing at a middle school where the track and field area serves as the race hub. The route is a neighborhood loop, and the holiday costume element is real, with awards going to the best-dressed alongside the usual age-group hardware.
The evening before the race, a local running store hosts packet pickup. Race-morning pickup is available for out-of-town runners, with a window before the start. Parking is on the street around the school; the organizers ask you to leave early and avoid any areas marked with traffic cones. Restrooms are near the start and finish.
