Description
Oh what fun is to run around Plymouth MA at night...especially behind Santa and his sleigh....and all the while benefitting the fight against ALS! Back for the 3rd year in a row running the Winter Lights 5k is ALS ONE/ Team Falcon! Just by joining our team, you are benefitting our mission greatly, as HILL & Partner's will be generously donating $50 to our mission for EVERY person who signs up on our team! You pay no more than the registration fee, and Hill & Partner's makes the donation - it's THAT simple! All you do is run/walk & have an incredibly fun time! This night time run, immediately following the annual Christmas Tree Lighting in America's Hometown (Plymouth MA), is one of the funnest events of the holidays! Wear your most festive running gear/costume (elves, santa's, reindeer, snowmen, etc), grab your glowsticks & headlamps, and have ONE fun time. Crowds line the street for this annual tradition and you can feel extra great knowing that JUST BY REGISTERING ON OUR TEAM, you are helping to fight the fight against ALS. In 2016, we had 100 runners, amounting to a $5,000 donation by Hill & Partners to ALS ONE, and in 2017, we doubled it with 200 runners on our team, equaling a $10,000 donation to ALS ONE! What will it be this year?!? We can't wait to find out!
AND... sign up in time, and you'll receive TWO t-shirts - one official race t-shirt and one ALS ONE/TEAM FALCON t-shirt!
The 7th Annual Winter Lights 5K will take place on Friday, December 7th, 2018 at approximately 6:15pm. Join Santa and the Town of Plymouth for the annual tree lighting on Main Street as part of the Christmas in Historic Plymouth Celebration. When the tree lights go on, the race begins. Run through the downtown and along the waterfront for this early evening event to celebrate the start of the holiday season.
