Draycote Water, Rugby, Warwickshire, UK

Draycote Water, Rugby, UK

Sun 8th December 2019

Starting at 10:45

Organiser's Description

This is your chance to take over the spectacular Draycote Water site dressed as a real running Santa! Yule be sorry if you miss it! Like no regular run, this seasonal celebration sees hundreds of runners get together, dress up in identical Santa Suits (complete with beard, hat and belt!) and complete a chip-timed (approximate) 5 Mile/8k. Ideal for runners of all abilities whether you need to walk, jog or run for deer-life.

Every runner receives a Santa Suit, a chipped race number and a brilliant supported run around the beautiful Draycote Water. But wait, there's myrrh. After the run, you'll be rewarded with a mince pie, goody bag and a unique Santa-themed souvenir finishers' medal!

You won't get a better chance to take a Christmas (s)elfie. Enter online before we sell out!
