Immensely popular in its inaugural year, the Samuel Adams Surf-n-Santa 10 Miler promises to be bigger and better this year. Both races start outside the Virginia Beach Convention Center, but then finish INSIDE that same building, where a special, surprise finisher’s gift for the 10 milers and a fun, festive, post-race party featuring Samuel Adams beverages and live music awaits you. The weekend also includes a sports and fitness expo at the Virginia Beach Convention Center on Friday, December 2. Bring the whole family and join in the fun of this great holiday offering. As further enticement, everyone who enters receives a Santa hat and jingle bells.For more information, please visit www.surfnsanta10miler.com
