Wiggle Jiggle and Giggle Clothing-Optional 5K

Prepare for an exhilarating and utterly unique running experience at the Wiggle Jiggle and Giggle Clothing-Optional 5K and 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk on June 20, 2026, held at the sprawling Sunny Rest Resort in Palmerton, PA. This highly anticipated event, organized by Pretzel City Sports, is renowned for its fun, inclusive atmosphere where approximately 80% of participants embrace the clothing-optional spirit, running in varying states of undress. Whether you're looking to tick off a truly memorable "bucket list" race or simply enjoy a spirited run, this event offers a welcoming environment for all, where clothed runners are also highly encouraged to join the festivities.

The 5K course itself navigates the scenic roads and neighborhoods of Sunny Rest Resort's 190-acre property, amidst rolling farmland, requiring runners to complete a loop twice for the full distance. While specific elevation details are not extensively published, the "rolling farmland" suggests a course with some gentle undulations, providing an engaging challenge. Runners can expect cheers from resident nudists enjoying their Sunday routines, adding to the distinctive charm. Typical race day conditions in late June for Palmerton, PA, feature pleasant temperatures, with highs around 79°F and lows around 59°F, and about a 20% chance of precipitation, making for generally comfortable running weather. Be advised that past runner reviews have noted a lack of on-course water stations, with water available only at the finish area, which also serves as the halfway point for the 5K.

Beyond the race itself, your entry includes complimentary day-use access to Sunny Rest Resort, a value that opens up a world of post-race relaxation and entertainment. Enjoy the resort's pools, hot tubs, poolside bar, restaurant, nightclub, gym, trails, volleyball, and tennis courts, making it a perfect day out. The event kicks off with registration opening at 9 AM and the 5K start at 10 AM, culminating in a festive poolside awards ceremony. A portion of each entry fee, along with any additional donations, proudly supports the American Cancer Society. This is more than just a race; it's a vibrant, liberating experience designed for those "young at heart."
