Ugly Sweater Run

Fleet Feet Poughkeepsie
1895 South Rd,
We can't think of a better way to get into the Holiday spirit than running around a parking lot with friends in our best (worst?) ugly sweater gear!
Join us on Sunday, December 8th for Fleet Feet's 5th Annual Ugly Sweater 5K (un-timed) Fun Run. Now is the time to get creative and start thinking about putting together your best ugly sweater outfits because there will be prizes for those with the best holiday spirit.
Since 12/4 is National Sock Day, all participants will receive a custom pair of Zensah Ugly Sweater socks (scroll down for image), an Ugly Sweater custom bib, as well as a custom handmade finisher's medal (image coming soon). We'll have apple cider and cider donuts after the run and there will be spirit prizes for the best sweaters/costumes. If you've done this run in the past you know that costumes are highly encouraged!
Socks have already been ordered and sizes are limited. Register ASAP to avoid disappointment about sizing.
Registration is online only - there will be no in-store sign-ups for this event. Space is limited, don't wait to sign up and miss out! This event will likely sell out.
Runners & walkers of all paces are encouraged including first-time 5K'ers. The run will take place in the South Hills Malls parking lot. The run course is open to traffic and due to safety concerns, this event is unsuitable for dogs or very small children. We will allow strollers if you are comfortable with the risk of the roads being open to traffic and willing to start in the back to let the pack spread out at the start. If you are bringing a stroller you must allow ample space between you and the runners or walkers in front of you. The use of headphones is strongly discouraged and we promise that you won't need them anyway!
