Course, format and cause
This is the 13th running of the Niantic Jingle 5k. The event includes a walk/run and allows participants to push strollers, compete alone, or participate with a team. The course is described as an easy, flat route along the Niantic shoreline and the route remains the same as prior years. The event raises funds for the Brian Dagle Foundation and Brian’s Healing Hearts Center for Hope and Healing, organizations focused on support for grieving adults and community education on suicide prevention and awareness. Last year the event drew over 1,400 runners and walkers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
