Organizers describe a festival atmosphere with increased decorations and views of distant snow covered mountains to create a holiday setting at the Fairplex site.
The event continues its Penguin Club loyalty program. Participants who have run the race two years in a row or who have competed more than three years qualify for the Penguin Club.
The Golden and Triple Snowflake challenges will be on pause for the 2026 season because the schedule does not allow participants to run both events on the same day.
Bib pickup and registration details note a scheduled pickup location at SnailsPace, 1040 E Imperial Hwy #F2, Brea, CA, on the day before the race and on race day. Each participant will receive an individual code by email for pickup; runners must present photo ID and the QR code to collect their bib.
