Fort Lauderdale Jingle Bell Jog, Fort Lauderdale

A week before the real Kris Kringle slides down chimneys, hundreds of Santas will sprint around Fort Lauderdale during the Jingle Bell Jog. This annual event celebrates the holidays with a 5K jaunt that loops through Tropical Park and finishing on the property's running track.

Every participant in the Fort Lauderdale Jingle Bell Jog receives a full Santa suit to wear during the race, as well as jingle bells to tie onto their running shoes. Kids aged 10 and under can join the fun, too, during an Elf Dash that takes place on the same morning.
