About the Sleigh the Bay 5k
The course winds through the SweetBay neighborhood, starting and finishing at the Fleet Feet store in SweetBay Town Center. The route stays within the community, so the surroundings are residential and easy to navigate. Runners tend to show up in Santa hats and ugly sweaters, which gives the morning a distinctly holiday feel.
Packet pickup is at the Fleet Feet storefront, which also serves as the start and finish. After the run, there are cookies and milk at the finish line. Parking should be straightforward given the Town Center setting.
