Get ready to give back, get moving and spread some holiday cheer with Twelve Days of Run!
Since 2020, Twelve Days of Run has united the running community with connection, movement and festive holiday spirit. This is an accessible, inclusive and intentional virtual event for everyone. Whether you’re tackling the Full Santa or a Half Santa challenge—it’s a fantastic way to stay moving or kick start that holiday spirit!
Share your festive workout & run photos in the Lewiston Ultra Events Community Facebook group & don’t forget to team up with your local run crew. The more, the merrier, so rally your friends and let’s crush some merry miles together!
This year, we’re thrilled to give back to Bragg Creek Trails & Shuswap Trails and support the amazing organizations that maintain and advocate for the trails we love and activate in.
