About this race
Join us for our 11th annual Fleet Feet Ugly Sweater Run!
Gather up your family and friends for what has become a Fort Wayne Holiday tradition. Join us on Thursday December 17, 2026 for the Fleet Feet Ugly Sweater Run. A three mile fun run downtown while viewing all of the Holiday Festival Lights. After the run join us at JK O'Donnell's Irish Pub ,121 W Wayne St, Fort Wayne, IN 46802 , for our Ugly Sweater Contest (where the ugliest sweater wins a prize), drinks, and fun.
Admission to the event is three non-perishable food items . We will be donating all the food collected to The Community Harvest Food Bank, previous year we were able to donate 1,000 pounds of food.
Please note, this is not a race, this is a fun run.
There will be no timing and we cannot close streets. So please abide by traffic laws.
Most of all have fun! We can't wait to see everyone at our favorite and biggest event of the season. Thank you to our sponsors: JK O'Donnell's, Fleet Feet, and Brooks Running that help keep this event free!
Admission: Three food items to donate! PLEASE DONATE
