Jingle Bell Run - Mountain Brook

The Jingle Bell Run in the Birmingham, Alabama area gathers participants at Patriot Park in Homewood for a festive charity run. The event offers multiple options: a 5K Timed, a 5K Untimed, a Champions of Impact 5K, a 1-Mile Fun Run, and a Virtual Jingler. Runners and walkers are encouraged to wear holiday gear as they “jingle” toward a cure for arthritis.

Courses for the 5K and 1-Mile are mapped and posted, and finisher medals are awarded—with special honors for top fundraisers and costume winners. Pre-race packet pickup is available, and a kid-friendly zone adds family appeal; all proceeds benefit the Arthritis Foundation. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
