We're calling on all runners to join our brand new virtual Santa Fun Run on 20 December to help raise money for charity and add a little bit of festive fun this December.
Don a Santa suit, raise money, get running and post your fun photos online so we can share your experience - everyone receives their own suit to keep and an achievement medal!
How to Take Part
When: run any time on Sunday 20 December 2020 (for those unable to run on this date, the event will remain open until 25 December).
Where: run anywhere you like - streets, parks, gardens, seafront, downland or even around your home - the choice is yours!
How: we'll provide you with a Santa suit (Santa dress and junior suits also available) - you could even customise with festive trimmings! Please remember however to adhere to social distancing guidelines at all times.
Who: adults and children can take part - we have family entries too! Under 16's must run with a parent or guardian. Under 5's can take part for free as Santa's little elf helper (please note no suit or medal provided for under 5's).
