America’s Christmas Hometown, Inc. (ACH) is so excited to be bringing a 5k run/walk to the 2025 Santa Claus Christmas Celebration - the Holiday Hustle 5k! We can’t wait to see your most festive holiday gear. Do you have reindeer antlers? Light-up necklaces? An amazing holiday sweater? A santa suit?! Wear it all at once if you want - no judgement here! Just don’t forget your best running shoes.

Everyone who pre-registers will receive a festive t-shirt and a drink ticket at registration the day of the race. Drink tickets are good the day of the race for either one craft beer or one craft root beer made locally through Santa Claus Brewing Co. who will be on-site near the race registration the morning of the race. (Don’t forget your ID!) Drink tickets are good either on-site during/after the race or at Santa Claus Brewing Co. December 20th & 21st.

Raceday registration for the Holiday Hustle 5k will be at the Santa Claus Community Center (200 Patricia Koch Dr., Santa Claus, IN 47579) beginning at 8am. The route for the 5k consists of mostly paved (some un-paved) trails to, through, and around Yellig Park and back to the Santa Claus Community Center.

Pre-registration ($25) for the Holiday Hustle 5k will be available online through Wednesday, December 3, 2025. Registration after December 3rd is $30 and does include a drink ticket, but does not include a t-shirt. On-site registration will be available the day of the race.
