‘Tis the season to be Merry!

Join Fleet Feet West Reading for a Christmas adventure run through West Reading and Wyomissing! The Run Santa Run Scavenger Hunt, organized by Fleet Feet West Reading, is back for its 4th year. You will be given a list of riddles and questions to find the locations to run to and earn your raffle tickets. Because answering riddles and running is better with friends and family, start gathering your group of merry runners. There are no official teams, and this can be done as an individual as well. You may also partner up with someone at the start of the festivities. Be prepared to sing, dance, decorate a tree, take a selfie, and eat some cookies as part of the challenge! 

You will earn tickets for raffle prizes on the hunt. In addition to the raffle prizes, we will have fun prizes for the best Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus costumes. Participants will receive a custom Fleet Feet West Reading holiday-themed ear warmer headband. 

We will be donating a portion of the proceeds to the food pantry at Bethany Lutheran Church. Please consider donating non-perishable food items that can be dropped off at the beginning of our adventure!

The riddles for the locations will be handed out starting at 9:30 a.m. Participants will be sent out at 10:00 a.m. and will have exactly 1 hour to get to as many locations as they can to earn their raffle tickets. Anyone who returns to Sly Fox after 11:00 a.m. will have to hand their raffle tickets over to the Grinch. You may only return with the raffle tickets you earned, not your entire group’s tickets.

Hoka will be joining us this year with their Clifton 10 and Arahi 8 to demo during your run and some free give-a-ways and raffles.

The event venue is at Eight-Twenty at the Mills, located behind Sly Fox and next to Kimberton Whole Foods.

Join Fleet Feet West Reading for a high-energy night celebrating strong, unstoppable women in sport!

“Move Her Mind” kicks off Thursday, November 13th at 6:30pm with a cocktail hour meet & greet at the vibrant Eight-Twenty at the Mills (Sly Fox’s Event Venue), followed by an inspiring panel discussion led by keynote speaker Sam Snukis and a powerhouse lineup of women athletes, coaches, and a sports psychiatrist. During the cocktail hour we’ll have Swedish meatballs, vegetarian spring rolls, and hummus dip. There will be a cash bar, but the first drink is on us.

We’ll dive into what drives us, how we overcome barriers, and what keeps us moving. Moderated by Ken Singleton, with panelists Sorita Averill, Jess Cammauf, Aimee Kohler, Adriane Hoke and Maeve Thistel, expect honest stories, laughs, and lasting motivation. BLiNCK Studios will be providing professional quality audio/video production for our guests.

You’ll also receive sweet swag bags and opportunities to win raffles—including prizes from Shokz Headphones, Amphipod Safety Lights, Asics shoes, and other gear to keep you safe on a run!

Why come? To connect. To grow. To move—together.

Come for the stories, stay for the sisterhood.

Get your green on and join Fleet Feet West Reading at Oakbrook Brewing Company for the 2025 Shamrock Shuffle. This is a FUN run to celebrate the holiday and not a timed race. 

A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Lauren’s Foundation who supports local families through a variety of charitable funds that support high school seniors, families with seriously ill children, brain tumor research and organ donation awareness. A representative of Lauren’s Foundation will be at the race to collect any extra donations and to discuss their charity.

Hoka will be joining us this year with their newest models to demo on this run. All participants will receive a raffle ticket to win a free pair of Hoka’s of your choice but if you demo a pair at the Shuffle you will receive a 2nd ticket. Also, your first round of beer is on Hoka and Fleet Feet West Reading!

Although you don’t need to wear green, or dress like a leprechaun, we will be voting on the best dressed. One LUCKY winner will receive a $50 Fleet Feet gift card and a Fleet Feet hat!

Every participant will receive a free beer!
