Carol of Lights Run

The Carol of Lights Run is a festive, family-friendly running event held on the Texas Tech University campus in Lubbock, Texas. Participants can choose between a 1-mile or 5K course, with the 5K route featuring a unique lap through Jones AT&T Stadium. The event is illuminated by over 25,000 colorful lights decorating campus buildings, creating a magical holiday atmosphere.

Carolers entertain runners along the course, and after finishing, participants enjoy Santa’s treats on a chilly winter evening. The run supports a local children's charity and includes mandatory packet pickup before race day. It offers a spirited way to celebrate the season with community and fun.
