CARMEL, IN – Lace up your holiday shoes for the first Glühwein Gallop 5K at the Carmel Christkindlmarkt on Saturday, December 4, an event presented by the Tuxedo Brothers.
The Glühwein Gallop will launch from the Christkindlmarkt at Carter Green at 10:30 a.m. The scenic course will take participants throughout Carmel's central corridor, including Midtown and the Arts & Design District. In addition, there will be a costume contest with prizes for the favorites chosen by judges.
Upon completing the race, participants who are 21 years of age or older will receive a ticket for a free serving of Glühwein or one of the craft beers to be offered at the Christkindlmarkt.
"The Carmel Christkindlmarkt is thrilled to be working with the Tuxedo Brothers and adding our first annual Glühwein Gallop 5K to the lineup of events associated with the market this year,” said Maria Murphy, CEO and Market Master. “We anticipate it being just as popular as the warm mulled wine – or as the Germans call it Glühwein – which is a tradition at the market.”
“We are very excited to be involved in this new event that will be part of the Christkindlmarkt this December,” said Don Carr, President and owner of Tuxedo Brothers. “With the great success and history of the festival, we are confident we’ll get a great crowd to participate in this new 5K.”
This event is open to all ages and abilities. Discounted, early bird registration will continue through October 31 and is $32 per participant.
A portion of the proceeds will go to the Indiana German Heritage Society and the Indiana Historical Society who help the market with educational and cultural activities focused on Germanic traditions.
