Holiday Half Marathon & 5K
The Holiday Half Marathon & 5K is scheduled for December 20, 2026, at the Fairplex in Pomona, California. The event offers multiple race options and a festival atmosphere with holiday decorations and distant snow-covered mountains visible from the site.
Race offerings include:
- Half Marathon
- Glow 5K
- Penguin Waddle Kid's Run
Bib pick up is available at an off-site location in Brea and at the event venue on race day. Each participant receives an individual code by email and must present a photo ID and their QR code to collect a bib. The event continues its Penguin Club loyalty program; participants who have run the race two years in a row or more than three years qualify for the Penguin Club. The Golden and Triple Snowflake challenges are paused for the 2026 season because the event is held on a single day, which prevents participants from running both events.
The presentation focuses on family-friendly and community elements through multiple race distances, a kid's run, and a holiday-themed festival area at the Fairplex in Pomona. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
