Santa Shuffle Run 5K Run/Walk/Ride

The Inaugural Santa Shuffle 5K Run/Walk/Ride

The Santa Shuffle5K event is specifically designed to celebrate Christmas as the epicenter of giving, while also celebrating active lifestyles, helping kids while having serious fun all for a good cause. The Run/Walk/Ride will feature everyone in the family from toddlers to grandparents. Participants will have the choice to do the full 5K ride on a bike, 5K run or the 2 Mile Walk or Trot. Both courses, designed to accommodate the fitness goals and levels of runners, walkers and bike riders of all ages. The course will flow through the most beautiful and historical areas in Kansas City. The Run/Walk/Ride will start behind the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum at 7:00am, run/walk or ride east down 18th St. towards the Gates Plaza, and return. Every person participating in the event will be given a Santa Suit. After the run/walk/ride is completed all participants dressed as Santa will be given a wrapped gift to carry inside to give to a child, during the Breakfast with Santa event. In addition to the Santa suit, participants will receive swag bags, commemorative t-shirts, chip timing, free breakfast, medals, and more...

The secondary goal of the event is to raise awareness and financial support for Team WallStreet Foundation. Its offerings are designed to create many community events in and around Kansas City, from giving out back to school supplies, and gifts during the holidays, to teaching high school aged students the fundamentals of sports broadcast journalism, sports photography, sports marketing, and sports interviewing skills.
