About the race
8 Hours of Christmas is scheduled for December 19, 2026, in Molena, GA, at 506 Thundering Springs Rd. The event is an elimination-style race built around a repeated loop course.
Each participant must complete a 3.85 mile loop that gains 950 feet. Runners have 70 minutes to finish each loop and return to the starting area; failure to do so results in elimination. This process continues for up to eight loops. On the final loop the fastest lap determines the overall winner.
After each successful loop every runner receives a prize. Examples given include a Christmas ornament after the first completed loop and a water bottle after the second, with awards described as increasing in value through hour eight.
All registered participants become Revolution Running members for 2027. Registered runners receive a pair of Revolution Running sweat pants at packet pickup and a 20 percent discount on all Revolution Running races in 2027; a discount code will be sent with the race email confirmation.
The event's refund policy allows a full refund until three months before the race date; after that point no refunds are available. Registration for the event closes on Wednesday, December 16, 2026 at 11:59 PM ET. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
