Photos: St. Agnes Cathedral School hosts the 2023 Rudolph Run

The grounds of the St. Agnes Cathedral School were transformed into a lively spectacle on Saturday morning as hundreds of eager students from Kindergarten to 6th grade gathered for the highly anticipated 3rd annual Rudolph Run.

This festive event, proudly presented by the St. Agnes Mothers’ Club, has become a cherished tradition that not only promotes physical activity but also fosters a sense of community and holiday spirit among participants.

Dressed in a variety of warm, cozy outfits adorned with festive holiday costumes and decorations, the students brought an extra layer of joy to the event, while still sporting their running shoes in preparation for the start of the one-mile Christmas-themed course around the school.

Excited youngsters dashed off at the start, weaving through the course as parents and spectators were equally caught up in the merriment as they cheered on the young runners.

The event also included music, hot cocoa stations, reindeer activities, and special guests Santa and Mrs. Claus, who stopped by from the North Pole to present each of the runners with a special medal for completing the course.
