Motivated in Motion and Loop Leisure Club are teaming up to host a festive meetup for the 12K's of Christmas! Grab your most festive outfit, bring a friend, and come loop the Country Hills Village Pond with us. Run or walk anywhere from one loop to the full 12k, then warm up with hot chocolate, treats, and Christmas prizes. Every pace is welcome and the meetup is totally FREE!
How to join: Reserve your spot on Eventbrite so we know how much hot chocolate to make. Want your loops to count for something extra? You can also register for Run Calgary's 12K's of Christmas virtual race (Dec 1 to 12) to get the festive shirt, finisher's medal, and daily prize draws. That part is totally optional, and everyone is welcome at the meetup either way!
Date: December 5th, 2026
Time: 9:00 AM
Distance Options: 1.5km to 12km (one loop or all 8, you choose!)
Location: Meet at the gazebo at Country Hills Storm Pond (beside Sobeys)
We'll have a hot chocolate aid station going in the gazebo the whole morning, plus treats to celebrate the season together. Dress in your most festive gear! We LOVE a good Christmas sweater, light up headband, or full Santa suit.
Runners and walkers of every pace are welcome. The route is a 1.5km loop, so you can do one lap, the full 12k, or anything in between. Come for a loop, stay for the hot cocoa!
Let's come together, move our bodies, and soak up the holiday cheer. See you there!
We'll meet at the gazebo at Country Hills Storm Pond, right next to Sobeys and Woody's Taphouse. From there we'll run loops of the pond, which is a 1.5km loop. Join us for one loop or go for all 12km! Our hot chocolate aid station will be set up in the gazebo, so you'll pass it every lap.
As part of our 12k’s of Christmas Community Run, we’ll be accepting donations for the Calgary Food Bank. Please bring a non-perishable food item to help support those in need this holiday season. Let’s give back to our community while we run together!
