2025 U.S. Bank Vail Ugly Sweater Fun Run

Spread some holiday cheer while contributing to a great cause! Join us on Sunday, Dec. 14 for the Vail Rec District's 2025 U.S. Bank Ugly Sweater Fun Run.
This event involves a morning run through Vail that supports The Community Market and local toy drives led by Edward Jones in Eagle. All the toys collected will be donated to local families residing in Eagle County.
The race starts at Bart & Yeti's in Lionshead at 8:30 a.m. Two distances will be offered, a 5K and a 3K option. The 5K course is approximately three miles long, weaving in and around Lionshead and Vail Village. Santa Claus will kick off the merriment by leading runners through town on his fat bike.
When you're done, join us at Bart & Yeti's for an after-party with free burritos, breakfast beer, hot chocolate and raffle goodies!
Prizes will be awarded at the after-party for the best outfits (adults, kids and dogs) and the biggest donations.
Please sign up in advance at www.vailrec.com. Entry cost is $9 with a donation of food or a new, unwrapped toy for our charitable partners. Visit www.vailrec.com/u-s-bank-ugly-sweater-fun-run for a list of food items that will be accepted. All entry fees go to our charitable partners as well. We are happy to accept cash donations on race day too!
If you don't want to run but would still like to donate food or toys, you can drop off your item at the start/finish area from 8 to 11 a.m. on race day. Starting in late November, we will also have donation drop-off boxes at the Imagination Station, Vail Nordic Center and Bill Wright Tennis Center. Additionally, all Edward Jones locations in Eagle County (Gypsum, Eagle, Edwards and Avon) will collect food and toys starting the week of Thanksgiving.
