Wild Christmas Charity Run

Sat 5th December 2026

A group of people in festive attire, including Santa hats and reindeer antlers, run and smile on a grassy field at the Wild Christmas Charity Run event. Logos for The Hospice of St Francis and Run the Wild are visible. A group of four people dressed in festive holiday gear, including Santa hats, a Santa beard, a Christmas tree hat, and novelty glasses, are running outdoors on a frosty morning. They are smiling and waving at the camera, with trees and a clear sky in the background. Two people dressed in Santa Claus costumes stand outdoors. The person on the left is smiling with a long beard, while the person on the right, with their back to the camera, wears a Santa hat. They are surrounded by a green field and trees with a cloudy sky above. A group of five people, two adults, and three children, are running on a grassy path. They are dressed in colorful winter running attire. The background features trees and a hint of buildings, suggesting they are in a park or suburban area. Everyone is smiling and enjoying the run. A person wearing a red jacket and a colorful beanie is running outdoors on a grassy field, smiling and raising their hands in the air. Another person in a yellow jacket and festive hat runs behind them. The sky is overcast, suggesting cool weather. Three people are running on a grassy field under an overcast sky. They are wearing jackets and shorts, with one in a pink jacket and festive Santa hat, another in a brown jacket and beanie, and the third in a black and orange jacket. Trees are visible in the background. Two people dressed in festive attire run on a grassy path near a brick building and a tree. One person wears a Christmas pudding costume, and the other wears a Santa hat and grey sweater with a reindeer design. The landscape features open fields and rolling hills. A wet dog with black, brown, and white fur stands on a grassy field. The dog is wearing a harness and leash, with a small orange ball attached to the collar. The dog's fur is damp and slightly matted, and it looks attentively into the distance.
