Jingle Jog 5K - Winston-Salem

Jingle Jog 5K & Santa Strut is a holiday-running event in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, starting at Fiddlin’ Fish Brewing (772 Trade St NW). The 5K course travels along the Long Branch paved trail and returns via the Research Parkway corridor on the edge of downtown, while the Santa Strut Fun Walk & Run is a 0.7-mile loop designed for families and leashed pets. The festival-style race invites all ages and offers a festive atmosphere with pet participation.

Registration includes a finisher medal that doubles as a Christmas ornament, a digital certificate, and free professional race photos; 21+ runners receive a craft beer. Proceeds benefit Ruff Love Rescue; the event is chip-timed with top-finisher awards. Post-race celebrations occur at the brewery. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
