About the NARMC Santa Shuffle Fun Run
The route starts at a regional medical center, heads down Main Street, and loops around the historic downtown square. Most people run it dressed as Santa, suits earned by bringing an unwrapped toy for a child in need. Christmas music plays along the way, and the crowd lining the square is mostly families cheering from the sidewalk.
Toy drop-off and Santa suit pickup happen at the medical center on the couple of evenings before race day. After the finish, hot cocoa and cookies are set up at what they call Santa's Sweet Shop. The donated toys go to local children through partner organizations across the region.
