(CLEVELAND) The 6th annual A Christmas Story Run features a 20-foot inflatable "pink nightmare," the pajamas Ralphie wore in the movie. Six thousand runners -- many in costumes from the movie -- will experience another special treat as well.
"This year's theme is the Bumpus hounds, the dogs that stole the Old Man's turkey on Christmas Day," says race organizer Amy Kentner. She says dogs are welcome this year.
The race has raised $400,000 for the Christmas Story Neighborhood Foundation over its first five years.
The race steps off from Public Square at 9:00 a.m. Saturday morning. The 10k returns to Public Square while the 5k ends at Ralphie's mailbox. Click for more information
