WILD CHRISTMAS CHARITY RUN
We are excited about our 6th Wild Christmas Charity Run! For another year we are pleased to to be supporting the wonderful work of The Hospice of St Francis who will receive all profits from this event.
The run is open to all abilities with a 4km guided walk and 8km guided trail run. The family friendly 4km route will have Christmas themed activities on route. The 8km guided run will take in some of the beautiful local trails and our guides will be providing trail running tips and fun local info along the way.
The event is open to everyone, including children and dogs (please see information about canicross harnesses). Choose your ticket accordingly.
Free mince pie and mulled wine with every entry. Prize for best fancy dress! However, fancy dress is optional. The event will finish around midday.
Berkhamsted train station is just a few minutes’ walk away from the start. There are regular trains from London Euston (every 20 minutes) which take around 30 minutes. Parking is free. We recommend arriving already changed.
ABILITY
All abilities are welcome! For the 8km guided trail run you will be grouped with similar ability runners, led by one of our Run Leaders. For 2024 we also have a 4km guided walk which is open to families and all abilities.
We welcome all ages. Children under 16yrs need to be accompanied by a parent / guardian.
DOGS
You can bring your 4-legged friend, we just ask that all dogs are run in canicross equipment only, are kept on lead at all times and under close control plus you clear up after your dog. We also have only a limited number of places for dogs. We will not accept dogs being run with a lead attached to their collar (see more information here).
