Fleet Feet and Dancing Gnome Run Clubs' Holiday Lights Charity Run sponsored by Union Fitness is a running race on December 10, 2026 in Pittsburgh, PA.
Our annual Holiday Lights Run, sponsored by Union Fitness and co-hosted with Dancing Gnome Running Club, is on Thursday, December 10th!
Come early to participate in a raffle with awesome prize baskets from our vendors, community partners and local businesses. Then, join the group for a 2, 4, or 6 mile route to view Pittsburgh’s holiday light displays.
This year, we are proud to announce the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank as our charity partner. Every day, thousands of our neighbors struggle to get enough food. The Food Bank ensures that everyone has access to nutritious meals and works to address the long-term challenges tied to food insecurity.
We’re also excited to share two partnerships this year. Union Fitness joins as our sponsor. Our partnership is a natural fit, as both of our organizations are dedicated to promoting health, wellness and togetherness in Pittsburgh. Their comprehensive and inspiring space is housed within Nova Place. We will also be co-hosting with our friends from the Dancing Gnome Run Club, who will not only bring out their runners, but also good vibes and holiday cheer.
