This December run has become popular in Des Moines. Last year, 400 people ran it, and they are hoping for many more this year. It starts in the East Village near Fleet Feet Sports. Team RunFree is one of 5 charities sponsored by this race. Registrants can choose which charity receives $15 of their registration fee. And, each runner receives a Santa suit for they running 'uniform'.
