Denver Colorado Jingle Bell Run/Walk Event to Benefit Arthritis Held Sunday, December 9th

jingle bellThe 16th Annual Jingle Bell Run/Walk Event will be held on Sunday, December 9th in Denver, Colorado at Washington Park. Participants can walk or run a 5K route. The event benefits the Arthritis Foundation.

What makes a Jingle Bell Run/Walk festive for the holidays is that participants are given a set of jingle bells to tie to their sneakers. The air is filled with the cheerful sounds of jingle bells as the runners and walkers get energized and help to raise funds for the Arthritis Foundation. Participants are also encouraged to come dressed in a festive (and sometimes silly) holiday-themed costume to run or walk the 5K event in. The walk includes a 1K children’s run and a 5K run/walk with your dog. There is an awards ceremony following the event.

The Arthritis Foundation has held Jingle Bell Run/Walk Events throughout November and December. To see if there is one in your area, visit here.
