Christmas Day Cracker Run 2026

The Christmas Day Cracker Run is a run-or-walk event held on Christmas Day for people who want to put on trainers before, instead of, or around the usual presents, drinks, and dinner. The next edition is the sixth running, and the field is open to runners of all abilities rather than only club runners or fast entrants. The course can be completed at a run or a walk, so it suits people treating Christmas morning as a race, a steady outing, or a social stretch of the legs. Members get the lowest entry price, a £10 discount, guaranteed entry, and a mini-me medal pin at every event they attend.
