Race to Whoville
About this race
The Grinch is coming to town, and Whoville needs your help!
Christmas is almost here. The lights are up, the decorations look great, and the Whos are counting down to Christmas morning. But the Grinch has other plans, and he's already headed down from Mount Crumpit to spoil the whole thing.
That's where you come in. Grab your family, throw on your best Christmas gear, and join us at CWC Life in Manteca for the first ever Race to Whoville 5K Run/Walk.
