Tips & Advice
- Pick up your kit on Saturday at Parque La Mexicana, because kits are never handed out on race day and missing pickup means losing your spot.
- Choose your suit size carefully using the measurement chart, since sizes cannot be changed once your registration is entered.
- Arrive well before the start and use the parking on Av. Arquitectos, because road closures slow access to the park and its lots.
- Keep your suit on and your bib on the front of your suit, since both are required to get your medal and runner benefits.
- Head to a Fisher's after finishing wearing your suit, bib and medal to claim the free chilaquiles and coffee breakfast.
Special Events & Promotions
- Free race-day breakfast at any Fisher's in CDMX for runners who show up in their suit with their bib and finisher's medal.
- Returning runners can register without a suit and reuse last year's official one.
- A combined registration includes a Santa suit for you and one for your dog.
- You can add your name printed on your Santa suit for an extra fee.
- Part of the proceeds buys Christmas gifts for children with cancer through AMANC.

Can I wear my own Santa suit?
