Mistletoe Run

Dive into the festive spirit with the Mistletoe Run! This beloved event is the YMCA of Northwest North Carolina's biggest fundraiser of the year and the perfect way to start your holiday season on a high note. Whether you're up for a one-mile Fun Walk/Run, a scenic 5K journey through the charming Buena Vista neighborhood, or a challenging Half Marathon that tours the picturesque grounds of Wake Forest University and beyond, there's a distance for everyone. And for our friends far and wide, you can join the fun virtually and complete your run from anywhere between December 2-10. Every stride you take helps transform young lives by supporting vital youth programs, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to thrive. Join us, in partnership with Bell, Davis & Pitt, to run, celebrate, and make a lasting impact!
