Holiday Hustle 5k Run/Walk

Holiday Hustle 5k Run/Walk takes place at Trailblazer Park in Travelers Rest, South Carolina, on December 5, 2026, with a single 5K (3.1 miles) run/walk starting at 9:00 AM. The event is built for runners of every age and ability: Christmas music plays along the way, a bubble machine keeps the kids entertained, and anyone who picks up a bib early goes home with a keepsake. Festive outfits are encouraged, and hot drinks and treats wait for you past the finish line.

Dogs, strollers and walkers are all welcome, so this is a genuine community morning rather than a hard-nosed race, and proceeds go to local charities. If you want to run it well, six weeks of easy running three or four times a week plus one weekly session of short, faster repeats is plenty of preparation for 3.1 miles. If you would rather walk it in a sweater and a Santa hat, you will be in good company.
