Is anyone taking part in a festive run...?

I have got two of these. 10th Dec - Christmas Pudding Run (10 mile) and 17th Dec - Turkey Trot (5 mile)

Now looking for anything to do with gravy and veggies, to complete a Christmas lunch.
These light hearted races look loads of fun, with runners dressing up in tinsel, santa outfits, etc.

'Go on it's Christmas', have some fun.....:d

Runningfox let me know about a Boxing Day run in Leeds which looks like a nice route. I think I'll give it a try.

Anyone in Merseyside might want to try the Santa Dash 4500 people racing dressed as Santa!

I've a Turkey Trot on 17/12 too but it's 10miles.

Me and the dog are doing the Santa Dash in Liverpool. We have both got our santa suits ironed and ready to go.

I'm probably going to have a go at the "Boxing Day Run", it's a nice little 3.2 mile cross country across some fields in Pirton, Hertfordshire. Sponsored by a local brewery they have their own beer brewed for specially for the race which is the momento.

I'm going to do the long run from the top of Courchevel to the bar at the bottom :embarrassed

(If I'd been staying at home in South West London I would have raced BPTT 5km, then swum in the open air pool at Hampton... what a shame I won't be home - I will have to do that on New Year's Day instead!)

I've got a 10km run on 3rd December and another on the 13th January. This should make me keep training over Crimbo and not turn into a drunken slob. After 2nd 10km, I'm starting training for my first half marathon.

 

[Runningfox]

For me it's the 'Travellers 6' at Denby Dale on 17/12 then nothing on the books until the Meltham 10K 28/1/07.... and between times it's gonna be a very festive Christmas in the Dales and goodness knows what might happen when I get north of the border for Hogmanay!!!
Cheers!

A group of us are taking part in the Liverpool Santa Dash - you can find out a little about our entry here.

Good luck to anyone who is taking part in a festive running event!

 

[twinnies]

I think I'm going to enter our local Christmas fun run, just a gentle 5k on Boxing day should help shift the Christmas dinner :lol:

 

[Bluepegasus]

I'm doing the Clevedon Boxing day run, which is 4 miles, I did it last year and I loved it!

 

[ShesScone]

Hey Dale!

I'm running for the British heart Foundation on Dec 13th at the Reading 6K Santa Jog (See Sig)

Then the 1st weekend in Jan i am running the Woodcote 10k to help run off the Christmas Pud!

Ah well - seeing as we're posting on here anyways - I'm doing a run Xmas morning - its a local one not advertised but joining some other club members and doing a shortish one followed by an ickle pub visit :d

Rumours are as well our club does a Christmas run where the ladies run one direction - the men run another and do a loop back towards each other and then when they meet - they go to the nearest pub.... I say the ladies just trot to the nearest pub and wait!! :lol:
