Event Description

The 2024 Santa Fun Run begins at 7 p.m. on Dec. 19 and winds through the United Way's beautiful Winter Lightfest. The run is a fundraiser for the Wylie Bulldogs Education Foundation and the United Way in partnership with Abilene Running Company.  Run or walk through 3 million lights and help promote excellence in education at the same time! Strollers are welcome (children under 3 do not require a registration). No dogs please.

The course is just under 3 miles and goes through the Lightfest four times. Register by Dec. 5 to receive a T-shirt featuring a fun, new design created by a Wylie student.

We hope you will join us for this great event!
