## About

Angleton Parks and Recreation's Jingle Bell Fun Run & 5K/10K starts at the Angleton Recreation Center on the Saturday morning before Christmas week. It opens at 8 a.m. with a Fun Run that people can walk, jog or stroll, followed by chip-timed 5K and 10K races, so walkers and strollers can take part alongside the racers. Afterwards everyone gathers for a homemade pancake breakfast: every registered runner gets breakfast, and friends and family who are not running can buy a breakfast ticket for $2 on race day. Register by December 6 to be guaranteed an event shirt and finisher medal; prices go up on December 7. Race-day registration opens at 7 a.m., and packet pickup is on Thursday, December 18, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. The city's listing does not print the entry fees or any age limits, so call the parks department (979-849-4364, option 2) before signing up children.
