The 10k Run will be a fast, flat course where each runner will receive a Collectors Bib, Candy Cane, Run Hat and a Finisher Tree Ornament for the Holidays.
Finish with hot cider and cocoa and snacks.
The 5k Run is similar to the 10k and will have 1 aid station. Same terrain allows for strollers, young kids and even walkers. The 5k runners also receive all the free gifts as well at the finish line expo.

This years gift is a light-weight, water-resistant Running Hat with an adjustale velcro strap. Past years have been beanies, gloves, scarfs,...and we make changes every year to different items runners can use! (Color is pending for 2025)
A unique concept we do with out Finisher Medallions.... the End-Piece of each Finisher Medal...un-clips and turns into a TREE ORNAMENT. Each year is a bit different and great to remember each year of the Candy Cane Run.
The gifts just keep coming...Every year there is a different Finisher Mug. In years past we have had ceramic, aluminium, and hand made clay mugs... This year a bit more ornate and colorful. The exact mug is a surprise at the finish line...with a Candy Cane.
At The Candy Cane Runs, we strive to provide a unique and unforgettable experience for all runners...use your Finisher Mug for ALL-YOU-CAN-DRINK hot beverages. For the adults we have a special "Adult" beverage area. (( Just ask ))
The Finish Line EXPO becomes a HOLIDAY PARTY with music, games, contests and plenty of snacks, cookies, ginger bread and even DONUTS for the kids that don't get enough sugar from all the candy canes
The CANDY CANE RUN wouldn't be complete without the candy canes. From green ones, red ones, fruity ones and TRADITIONAL. We will have them in your Mugs when you cross the finish line. And if you REALLY LIKE peppermint...stop by the "Adult" drink booth for a treat.
