Ugly Sweater Run

The Ugly Sweater Run is an annual festive running event held in Brevard, North Carolina, featuring 5K and 10K distances. The race course is scenic and mostly flat, winding through greenways, the Brevard Sports Complex, and charming local streets, with less than 100 feet of elevation gain. The paved route is family, pet, and stroller friendly, making it accessible for all participants.

Runners and walkers don their most outrageous ugly sweaters, creating a fun and spirited holiday atmosphere. The event includes professional chip timing, awards for top finishers and best costumes, a commemorative finisher ornament, and a lively post-race party at Oskar Blues Brewery.
