Get ready to dash through the holiday cheer! The 12Ks of Christmas returns to Kirkland, December 14, 2025 – a festive, family-friendly run/walk that combines stunning Juanita Bay views, jingle-bell swagger, and 12K (or 5K) worth of pure Pacific Northwest holiday magic. Whether you’re chasing a PR in an ugly sweater, strolling with the kids and the dog, or just here for the post-race hot cocoa and photos with Santa, this is the merriest way to kick off the season on the Eastside. Grab your antlers, tie those bells to your shoes, and join hundreds of merry runners in beautiful downtown Kirkland. Don't forget the crowd favorite, the Lil' Elf Run where the kiddos do a short .25 mile run and get a medal! It's so great to see the expression on their little faces when they get those medals! Spots fill fast – register now and make the 12Ks of Christmas your new favorite tradition!
PRE-PACKET PICKUP at December 12th at Moss Bay Hall in downtown Kirkland and December 13th at Brooks Sports Outlet in Bothell. Check website for details.
