The annual Adirondack Health Jingle Bell Run/Walk will take place on Saturday, Dec. 13, as part of the Lake Placid Holiday Village Stroll. This festive, family-friendly 2.5-mile event begins at the Lake Placid public beach and circles Mirror Lake in a counterclockwise loop. The flat course makes it perfect for runners and walkers of all ages. Registration opens at 7 a.m. inside the beach house, and the race begins promptly at 8:30 a.m. All runners and walkers are encouraged to bring a new, unwrapped toy on race day to support the Essex County WIC Holiday Toy Drive,
