Q50 Races Santa on Trails 5k

The Q50 Races Santa on Trails 5k is a festive trail running event held at Fontainebleau State Park in Mandeville, Louisiana. Participants run or walk a 5-kilometer (3-mile) course on flat, scenic trails near the water. The race promotes a joyful atmosphere with runners encouraged to wear Santa suits and bring a new, unwrapped toy to donate to children at the New Orleans Mission shelter.

Registration is available on race day, and all participants receive a Santa hat, a cool t-shirt, and a handmade medal. Food and refreshments are provided by the Mission, and the event emphasizes environmental respect with a bring-your-own-bottle policy to minimize waste.
