Run the 5k Santa Dash or take part in the 2k fun run/walk with the whole family. The Santa Dash is a 5K run and will be manually timed. ALL runners must wear a Santa Suit. There will be no winners prizes, Jigsaw will be the winner. We have decided to start the 5K 60mins before the Fun Run/Walk so all those taking part in the 5K can join friends and family in the fun run/walk. The Fun Run/Walk -Santa suits will be provided to all entries. Children 5 years and over we will have suits for 5 to 8 or 9 to 14 and the adult suit is one size fits all. Please enter early to guarantee you get the sizes you are after. Entries under 5 are free. We are able to supply Elf suits and medal for ages 3 to 5 or a Santa Hat and medal if preferred. Remember, as the weather will be cold at this time of year, we advise you wear suitable layers underneath the Santa Suit. All Runners and Fun Runners/ Walkers will receive a Festive Medal on completing their Santa Dash that can be worn with pride and displayed on your Christmas tree for all to see. All runners please be aware that the exit at the Tullie House Museum side of the underpass only has stairs or a lift to access street level. Lifts are available at the Millennium Bridge and Tullie House underpass, Now also available the new pedestrian crossing by the castle. If you have a buggy, wheelchairs etc. and would prefer to wait at the top of this under pass and join in with friends and family, then please feel free to do so.
