Jingle Bell Run
This holiday season, the sounds of thousands of bells will ring through the air as people across the country tie jingle bells to their sneakers and join in the Jingle Bell Run/Walk for Arthritis. The Jingle Bell Run/Walk is a national signature event for the Arthritis Foundation where thousands of people come together to run, walk, and raise money to help fight arthritis in more than 200 cities. However, it is more than just a 5K run/walk. It is a festive, holiday-themed event with holiday costume contests, dog walks, and kiddie runs, with old Saint Nick leading the way!
