The Experience

Santa is back in town! Whether you’re naughty or nice, you don’t want to miss this fun, festive, holiday favorite. We have some changes afoot in 2024! Due to uncertainty about venues and routes due to hurricanes Helene and Milton, we have moved both the half marathon and 10K to start and finish at Seminole City Park in Seminole. The park is a great venue and will provide a fantastic setting for the post-race celebration. We will not be offering alcoholic beverages this year due to park restrictions. We were already considering removing them anyway to make the Holiday Distance Classic a more family-friendly and focused event.
