About the race
Annual Running of the Lights in Mishawaka, Indiana, starts from Walt Disney Elementary School and guides runners through a lit route at Winding Brook Park. The event offers three course options: 3.9 miles (full), 3.4 miles (short), and 1.4 miles (super short). The running tour showcases holiday light displays, with residents collecting donations for local charities.
A Teddy Bear Trot is included; participants are encouraged to bring a teddy bear for donation. Runners receive a safety light at check-in and are asked to wear it along the route; traffic signs with flashing lights and volunteers help guide participants. Strollers welcome; dogs discouraged.
