Get your running (or walking) shoes ready! The 16th Annual “It’s a Wonderful Run 5K” is set to draw more than 5,000 participants to Seneca Falls on December 14th.

The event, part of the ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ Festival weekend, celebrates the beloved 1946 movie and raises funds for local charities, including the Seneca County House of Concern. A special tradition continues with Karolyn Grimes, who played Zuzu in the movie, starting the race with the iconic phrase: “Every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings.”

Participants can register online at itsawonderfulrun5k.com.
