4 Reasons to run the Xperience Fitness Reindeer Run
Time-honored Tradition
What are the holidays without tradition? The Xperience Fitness Reindeer run is a classic Minnesota tradition. In fact, Minneapolis runners have been kicking off their holiday seasons with the Reindeer Run for over 30 years!
C-c-c-chilly Challenge
Most anyone can complete a 5K or 10K race, but how about both races back-to-back? If you’re seeking a challenge this holiday season, the Yukon 15K Challenge is for you. Race the 10K first, take a break with some hot cocoa or coffee, and then line up to race the 5K. Yukon Challenge runners will receive a chip time for both races and an overall 15K race time. Plus, all Yukon finishers will receive a high-quality lapel pin (so you can brag all year long!)

Generous Goodwill
Did you know the Xperience Fitness Reindeer Run benefits charity? Toys for Tots and the Salvation Army are the beneficiaries of the race and ensure a holiday celebration for children all over. Participants of the Reindeer Run are also encouraged to bring toys to donate at the race.
Seasonal SWAG
You’ll never be without a festive running shirt again! All participants of the 5K, 10K, and Yukon Challenge will receive a holiday-themed, high-quality Storm Creek long sleeve t-shirt.
