South Park's Jolliest Race!
Join hundreds of runners and walkers from all over Western Pennsylvania to fill the park with Santas and elves. We have sold out since our first year in South Park, so don't wait! Be sure to register early! Runners are encouraged to dress "festive" and we will have prizes for the top 3 holiday outfits.
Back in 2025:
- The Jolly Mile - The perfect race for those who want to have a great time but might not be ready for the full 5K!
- Kids' Reindeer Ramble - A fun and festive race just for the little ones. Ages 10 and under.
Start Times:
- 8:45 am - Reindeer Kids Dash
- 9:00 am - 5K and The Jolly Mile
As with all Pittsburgh Run Santa Run 5k's, we will be collecting toy donations for Amachi Pittsburgh to support their work with local kids in need. Full details on Amachi and its mission can be found below.

Support Amachi Pittsburgh
Once again, GCXC is proud to support Amachi Pittsburgh. Amachi Pittsburgh raises awareness and delivers services to give children a fighting chance in Allegheny County-- when the community is knowledgeable about the challenges that they face, children have the support they need to thrive. This awareness creates policy-level change so that youth are unburdened from a system that has made them more vulnerable to the criminal justice system.
Please help us support Amachi by donating during your registration or by bringing an unwrapped toy for a child aged infant through 18 years old. These gifts will be distributed to children throughout the county during December and bring these kids a sense of support and joy during the holiday season.
