12Ks of Christmas Holiday Run/Walk to benefit Sleep Country Foster Kids program

Give yourself the gift of health -- and give 26,000+ foster children in Washington and Oregon a happier holiday -- by participating in this year's longer distance race.  At 7.46 miles with plenty of distance along the quiet shores of Lake Washington, the 12K's of Christmas Holiday Run/Walk offers a worthy and scenic challenge for you to accomplish this year. If the 12K is too long, there's a 5K, too.
