Aberdeen Santa Run 5K Fun Run/Walk

The Aberdeen Santa Run 5K Fun Run/Walk in Aberdeen, South Dakota features a 3.1-mile course through Wylie Park. Hundreds of participants dress as Santa and other holiday characters, creating a festive, family-friendly atmosphere. Santa suits are provided to registrants 13 and older, and running in Santa attire is encouraged.

All net proceeds benefit the Warner Public Schools Cross Country program in the inaugural year. Registration includes a Santa suit (guaranteed for the first 200 registrants), a Santa tote, long-sleeve shirt, race bib, and a Christmas ornament medal. Fees are $35 through November 26, then $50; if severe weather or cancellation occurs, the race becomes virtual with the registration package delivered.
