Chasewater Christmas Pudding Dash

The Chasewater Christmas Pudding Dash is a running event held at Chasewater Country Park in Staffordshire, offering 10k, 5k, and Junior Run distances. It is organized as a Christmas-season race, not a competitive club event, and participants are encouraged to wear festive fancy dress as seasonal characters. The event supports Shelter, with entry including a custom medal and complimentary race photographs. The course follows the paths and trails surrounding Chasewater Reservoir, primarily on flat, compacted trails with minor inclines. The 10k distance consists of two laps, and the 5k is one lap, simplifying the format for regular runners and families. Trophies and prizes are available for top finishers, and a prize is also awarded for the best-dressed runner, blending competition with costumes, volunteers, and a friendly Christmas atmosphere.
