The Capital Running Co.'s Kathy Freedman, who organizes the Jingle All the Way 10K, has witnessed an increase in folks racing in Santa hats and reindeer antlers. "One year there was even a guy running with a menorah on his head," she says. Try to top that at one of these upcoming races.
WOLF TRAP'S RUN FOR THE ARTS 5K It makes sense that this theatrical crowd would end its race with a costume contest. Oct. 24 at 8 a.m. 1645 Trap Rd., Vienna. 703-255-4030 or http:/
HIGH HEEL RACE This two-block Dupont Circle tradition isn't so much about the exercise as it is about the fabulous duds. Expect more sauntering than sprinting. Oct. 27 at 9 p.m. 17th and Church streets NW. Free.
YMCA-BETHESDA CHEVY CHASE TURKEY CHASE 10K The largest race in Montgomery County always inspires at least a few runners to dress up like gobblers. Nov. 26 at 8:30 a.m. 9401 Old Georgetown Rd., Bethesda. 301-530-3725 or http:/
