This fun-filled morning event starts bright and early at 7 AM, featuring a scenic route that loops through the park and along the Cedar City Greenway to the Train Station and back. While this is a fun run—meaning there will be no official timing—it’s a fantastic opportunity to enjoy the spirit of the season with friends and family.
This year, participants are encouraged to give back to the community by supporting a local ministry, ALL for HIM, through a Coat Drive and Canned Food Drive. Warm coats and canned goods are greatly needed for those in the Nashville and Wilson County area, and every donation you make enters you into a raffle for exciting gift baskets. Join the Cedar City Running Club for a morning of exercise, community spirit, and good cheer, while helping those in need this holiday season. Don't forget to bring your donations and your enthusiasm to make this event truly special!
