Organiser's Description
Get ready for some wintertime fun on Saturday, December 20 for the 5th annual GL"UHWEIN GALLOP 5K RUN/WALK! Taking place during the Carmel Christkindlmarkt festivities at Carter Green, the event draws its name from the German word Gl"uhwein (pronounced 'glue vine'), which translates to Glowing Wine in English. Gl"uhwein is a delicious mulled wine that is served warm in different flavors. Gl"uhwein and its special mugs are one of the biggest attractions each year at Christkindlmarkt.
Participants will start at 9:00am and run along this exciting course, which goes by the Palladium, through the Carmel Arts & Design District and past the shops on Main Street, and along the Monon Trail, before finishing back at the market.
WE LOVE OUR FOUR-LEGGED FRIENDS, BUT FOR EVERYONE'S SAFETY, NO DOGS ARE ALLOWED ON THE COURSE.
