“Join the Santa Hustle Race Series – where holiday cheer meets festive fitness,” said Randi Schooley of Santa Hustle Race Series. “Whether you're a seasoned marathoner or a first-time jogger, come celebrate the season of giving with us. All levels are welcome to run, walk, or jingle all the way to the finish line!"
