About this race
Event Overview
Join Twin Lakes Community as we celebrate 20 years of Lanes of Light! Choose your Christmas Adventure - take the Elf Express (follow the Elf signs) or the Reindeer Route (follow the reindeer signs)! The Elf Express is a merry mile for everyone: making a loop around the main roads of Twin Lakes. For those of you who want to go a little further with Santa's favorite team, choose the Reindeer Route which will cover both sides of the Twin Lakes campus. Race/walk/roll and stroll through our annual holiday light display. Along with the light display, prepare to meet the residents who call this place home. Many of them will be cheering and serenading you with holiday song from the sidelines as you make your way through the course.
