Jingle Bell Run for Arthritis with Jo’s Jinglers

About this event

@

Date: Saturday, December 5, 2026 Time: Team meets at 8:30 a.m. Location: COSI / Genoa Park, 303 W. Broad Street, Columbus, OH 43215

Ring in the holiday season with a festive run or walk for a great cause. The Bexley Women’s Club is assembling a run and walk team to support fellow member Joanna Helon and her team, Jo’s Jinglers, at the Arthritis Foundation’s Jingle Bell Run.

Since 2016, Jo’s Jinglers has raised $321,800 to bolster the Arthritis Foundation’s mission to conquer arthritis through life-changing science, advocacy, and community connections for people with arthritis. Let’s show up in force and add to that total.

Choose your distance: a timed 5K or a 1-mile walk. Runners, walkers, and first-timers are all welcome, and so are strollers and dogs. Festive attire strongly encouraged!

Two steps to join us:

• RSVP here on the BWC calendar so we know you are on the team.

• Register for the race through the Jo’s Jinglers team page: https://events.arthritis.org/teams/JosJinglers2026

Registration: $50 for the timed 5K or $45 for the 1 mile through December 4; $55 and $50 on race day. Every participant receives a shirt, jingle bells, and a medal.

What happens after you register: Joanna will add you to the Jo’s Jinglers team email list, which is where race day details will come from. Race packets will be delivered to you the Thursday or Friday before the race (December 3 or 4), so there’s no packet pickup line to stand in. On race morning, the team meets at 8:30 a.m.

Can’t make it on the 5th? Register as a Virtual Jingler for $45 to receive a shirt and medal and fundraise from anywhere, or support the team with a donation on the Jo’s Jinglers page.
