Run or walk a 5k on Christmas Eve! The race starts and finishes on the soccer field behind the Food Lion on North Main Street in Blacksburg, with the majority of the race run on roads and paved bike paths. Net proceeds from this race will be donated to a charity chosen by the participants. Costumes are welcome and the race always has great door prizes!

The Frosty 5K is a rolling course on the bike paths and roads of the Shenandoah neighborhood. The race finishes with a short grass loop on even terrain. The race has a fast 1st mile and a challenging last mile to help burn those holiday calories! There's an aid station just past two miles. The Jingle Bell Mile is an out-and-back course on the same grass loop and bike paths as the Frosty 5K course.

Every 5K participant is guaranteed a long-sleeve shirt with registration on or before Tuesday, December 10th. Extra shirts will be ordered, however, shirts are not guaranteed for signups after December 10th. Jingle Bell Mile participants may purchase a shirt during registration while supplies last.

The cost is $30.00 for the 5k if you register by Monday, December 23rd. Late registration is $35.00. The Fun Run is free.
