For those looking for an extended adventure, additional events are scheduled from December 29 through January 3, 2027. This event offers a flexible "Turn Up Get Going" (TUGG) system where participants can start anytime between 7:30 AM and 2:30 PM but must finish by 3:30 PM. The course features a picturesque 5.3-kilometer out-and-back loop that winds along the tarmac of an old railway path, providing runners with stunning views and a well-maintained surface.
