About the Santa Hat 5K & 1M Family Fun Run/Walk
This holiday race runs through Honolulu with participants wearing Santa hats, and the hat is part of the whole point. There are distance options for adults and a separate timed kids' race, so families with children of different ages can each find something that fits. A stroller division is offered. The race benefits the Salvation Army.
Post-race results go up on a local timing company's website shortly after finishing. The event draws families looking for a seasonal tradition rather than a personal record, and the Santa hat theme runs through the whole afternoon.
