WILD CHRISTMAS CHARITY RUN
We are excited about our 7th 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 4km guided walk is family friendly. 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 for both routes.
The event is open to everyone, including children and dogs (please see information about canicross harnesses). Choose your ticket accordingly.
Free mince pie with every entry. Hot drinks including mulled wine will be available to purchase on the day. Prize for best fancy dress! However, fancy dress is optional. The event will finish around midday.

GETTING THERE
You will need to arrange your own transport to the start of the event. The start is 15 minutes walking distance from the station. There are regular trains from London Euston to Tring Station which take around 40 minutes. Parking is free and there are toilets available at the cafe. We recommend arriving already changed given the limited on-site facilities. Accommodation is available nearby, please get in touch if you would like any recommendations.
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).
