Mark those busy calendars and rally your crew — the Ugly Sweater Walk/Run is back!
Lace up, layer up, and get ready for another year of festive, fast-moving, and completely free fun. Let’s hit the streets in style!

Event Details
� Sunday, December 21st
⏰ 9:00 AM Start
� Hogan’s Fountain, Cherokee Park

Choose your challenge with 2.5, 5, or 7.5-mile road routes. As always, this event is untimed and non-competitive — walk or run, all paces welcome!

Ugly sweaters aren’t required, but festive gear is absolutely encouraged. Jogging strollers and friendly, leashed dogs are welcome; please start toward the back for safety and courtesy.

Presented by Fleet Feet & Brooks
Brooks will be on-site with their latest shoe lineup so you can demo the newest tech on your run. After you cross the finish, fuel up with festive donuts and cookies, Berserker Brew coffee and tea, a hot chocolate bar, and more.

Stay hydrated with support from KoftEdge, providing Gatorade and water to keep you feeling strong.

And don’t forget — free professional photos will be posted after the event thanks to pic.run and Run Louisville KY (join their Facebook group to grab your pics!).

Group Photo
A group photo will be taken at the start next to Hogan’s Fountain — don’t be late!

Raffles
Post-run raffles kick off at 10:30 AM in the pavilion across from Hogan’s Fountain. To be entered, you must register and must be present to win.

Supporting Dream Factory
This event is FREE, but we’ve partnered with Dream Factory to help support their mission. We encourage donating what you’d typically pay for a race to this local nonprofit.

Dream Factory is a national children’s wish-granting organization serving kids ages 3–18 with critical or chronic medical conditions. Their national office is right here in Louisville, with 32 chapters nationwide — and more than 95% of donations go directly toward granting dreams. They’ve been changing lives since 1980.
