WhoVillage Holiday Dash

WhoVillage Holiday Dash takes place in Fairport Harbor, Ohio, on December 5, 2026, starting at 9:00 AM. There is one format: a 2-mile dash, roughly 3.2 km, which puts it between a fun run and a full 5K. Fairport Harbor sits on the Lake Erie shore east of Cleveland, so expect a cold, breezy December morning and dress for the wind rather than the thermometer.

Two miles is a friendly distance to race. It is short enough that beginners can cover it without a formal plan, and fast enough that experienced runners have to commit from the gun rather than settle in. If you want to run it hard, treat it like a 5K effort held slightly longer: warm up thoroughly, go out at a pace you can hold for the full distance, and save anything left for the last quarter mile.
