A Message About This Year's Event
We originally planned to bring you another festive 4-Miler, and were deep in planning for that, but with recent changes from the City of Manchester about updates to road access for parades and events, we had to reimagine our course. The result? A brand-new, approved Ugly Sweater 5K starting and finishing at our favorite spot — Backyard Brewery! 🍻
It may be a little shorter this year, but it’s bigger than ever in holiday cheer! If your friends or family thought 4 miles was a stretch, tell them to grab their sweaters and join the 5K fun on December 13!
