This year’s Santa Run will take place on Sunday 8th December 2019. The run will take place at Victoria Park just a few miles from the centre of London. Victoria Park is one of the largest parks in the London area and is a wonderful setting for your run!
You’ll need to arrive at 10:00 a.m. for an 11:00 a.m. start
We have thousands of runners taking part in our 5k and 10k runs every year – many of them for the first time! It is therefore perfectly achievable for people of all levels of fitness to take part in this event, but in order to maximise your enjoyment, we do recommend you do some training. Download our sample training plan now to help you get ready for your fun run.
You can run for any of the thousands of charities listed on our Run For Charity page or simply run for one of your own choosing.
Your chosen charity will ask you to raise £100. This is easily achievable and both the Skyline Events team and your chosen charity will give you lots of help and fundraising ideas.
We simply ask you to pay £25 for adults (£10 for children – 15 and below) on registration which covers everything including:
A place in London’s largest Santa Run
A free Santa costume
Free mince pies and other refreshments at the end of your run!
The choice of a 5km or 10km route
A mini run for children
Christmas characters, festive music and even SNOW to get you in the spirit!
An official London Santa Run Medal
Running is one of those great sports where you won’t need lots of expensive equipment. Admittedly running shoes can be costly but they should last for around 500 miles which is 8 months on an average 15 miles/week training schedule. Once again, help will be on hand from both the Skyline Events team and your chosen charity once you have signed up for the event.
The main Santa run is reserved for those who are 8 or over. However we also have a FREE mini Santa run for the under 8’s which will take place just before the main run. Please note all those under 18 will need a letter of consent from a parent or guardian.
Places are filling up fast and we do limit the number of runners who can take part. Therefore simply click the button below to reserve your place ASAP!
