Growing up, Santa never looked like any of these guys. But Santa Speedo Runs, which have sprung up all over the country as a charity event, have changed our sense of what guys in Santa hats look like.
The event started in Boston in 2000 with five guys, and this year the runs raised $281,000. Merry Christmas!

The Boston Globe has a huge gallery from this year's event.
