The St. Mykolai Run is the second annual event hosted by the Ukrainian Community with the mission of promoting a healthy lifestyle and showcasing Ukrainian traditions in the USA.

Who Is St. Mykolai?

St. Mykolai is one of the most beloved figures in Ukrainian tradition and a symbol of kindness, generosity, and compassion.

In Ukraine, St. Mykolai is celebrated on December 6. According to tradition, he brings gifts to children who have been kind and thoughtful throughout the year. More importantly, St. Mykolai reminds us that the greatest gifts are kindness, care for others, and the joy of giving.

The St. Mykolai Run brings this beautiful Ukrainian tradition to South Florida, creating a special holiday celebration for families and the community — combining running, Ukrainian culture, traditions, and the spirit of giving.

Get ready for an unforgettable holiday experience! Every participant will receive a finisher’s medal, and themed T-shirts are available for those who register by November 22, 2026.

Enjoy a special workshop from our community. The day will also feature kids’ activities, delicious food and drinks, and a festive photo zone.

❄️ The Angel Kids Dash will start in a festive start zone with real snow, creating a magical winter atmosphere for the kids.

🎄 Join us for a fun, family-friendly event that blends sports, culture, and celebration.
