The 2021ChristmasTown 5K is five months in the future, but a resident of North Pole is already making plans to run the race through the holiday-brightened streets of McAdenville. No, I did not say "the North Pole." Everyone knows Santa is far too busy in late November to take time away from his workshop to run a 5K, even if it is in ChristmasTown USA. (We won't even get into Santa's questionable physical condition, which includes a belly that shakes like a bowl full of jelly, and his possible addiction to nicotine, made manifest by his constant puffing on a pipe.)
