In short: Always one for the December calendar ... kicks starts your Sunday morning!
In full: 4th time I have done this run ... ideal distance for those who have just taken up running with a few inclines! Fair play and well done to all those that dressed up ... makes the run more relaxed, enjoyable and fun.

In short: Great costumes, decent time, bad hangover!
In full: Some great costumes, this really is a very friendly race, one for everyone I think!
Will be back next year and probably with full costume!

In short: A great way to get into the festive swing!
In full: Excellently organised race as always with more fancy dress costumes than you can shake a Christmas pud at. The course isn't a pushover by any stretch of the imagination but the 4.2 miles seem to fly by as loads to see and much banter to be had along the course.

In short: Great race, great atmosphere, wonderful, costumes.
In full: An angel of the lord came down and said 'Eat my dust Santa', then I was overtaken by a gigantic boiled sweet, ran in the wake of a Chistmas star and sprinted past two sumo wrestlers and a herd of reindeer. And there were Santas and Christmas fairies everywhere! What a wonderful way to knock of four and a bit miles, even in the pouring rain the Christmas spirit starts here!

In full: Great race to do, loads of fancy dress, Christmas pud at the end is lovely!! Nice to see some police out and some sensible motorists passing.
