On December 15th, the streets of Old Québec came alive with laughter, festive costumes, and a wonderful spirit of solidarity. The Santa Claus Run SIMONS brought together runners from all walks of life for a joyful, pressure-free event. At Xact Nutrition, we were thrilled to join the fun and contribute to this amazing adventure!
No competition, just good vibes
What makes this run so unique is its relaxed, inclusive atmosphere. Regardless of your pace, everyone moved together, sharing a moment of joy and camaraderie. Once again, the costumes stole the show. From classic Santa suits to more creative takes, there was no shortage of eye-catching outfits to admire.
And you? What was your favorite costume that you saw during the run? We’re sure there were some real standouts!
A fruity boost along the way
At Xact Nutrition, supporting runners comes naturally to us. That’s why we handed out our fruit bars to all participants for free. With flavors like apricot, strawberry, and others, they were the perfect pick-me-up for those who needed a little energy or simply wanted to enjoy a tasty snack after crossing the finish line.
Seeing the smiles (and sometimes bars tucked into Santa suit pockets!) was definitely a highlight for us. If you tried our bars, what was your favorite flavor? Let us know!
Every step counted—even the zigzags from the elves
Beyond the fun, this run had a noble purpose: supporting the Petits Bonheurs d’école Foundation. Every registration, every effort, every step (even the zigzags from little elves!) went directly to this cause, which helps children from underprivileged backgrounds.
This is what makes the event so special: everyone contributing in their own way to make a difference. At Xact Nutrition, we’re proud to support a community that values generosity and solidarity—especially during the holiday season.
See you in 2025!
The Santa Claus Run is more than just a sporting event—it’s a celebration of holiday spirit. So whether you participated this year or are already planning your costume for next year, we can’t wait to see you again in 2025 for another memorable edition.
Share your favorite moments with us or tell us what you’d like to see next year. And most importantly, which costume stole the show in your eyes? We’re excited to read your comments!
