About the Carol of Lights Run

Enjoy the spirit of the season with an evening run on the campus of Texas Tech University. This family-friendly event will have you amazed at the more than 25,000 colored lights that illuminate many buildings on campus.  There are 2 course options.  1-Mile or 5K.

The longer course (5K) will have runners enjoying a lap through Jones AT&T Stadium (TBD)!  Carolers will entertain the runners along the course. After crossing the finish line, all runners will enjoy Santa’s treats on a cold winter’s night.
