The family-friendly Watford Santa Dash returns to Cassiobury Park on Sunday 2nd December and promises to be a fun-filled morning for runners of all ages and abilities.
Dress up as your favourite Christmas character and help make this a cracker of an event! Prizes will be awarded to the best dressed entries in each race as well as the fastest runners. There will be festive goodies for all and a special medal for all finishers!
Sunday 2nd December will kick off with a 1km Run for all ages and abilities at 10.10am, and the advanced entry fee is £6. This will be followed by the main event at 10.30am, which will be the chip-timed 5km Santa Dash (minimum age is 11), for which the advanced entry fee is £13. For more details, go online to Watford Mencap Santa Dash.

Proceeds from the Santa Dash will be used to help fund Watford Mencap’s children’s centre which supports families with a child or young person that has a learning disability. Thank you to Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden who are sponsoring the Santa Dash and any runner raising over £50 in sponsorship for Watford Mencap will be entered into a draw to win a family ticket to Warner Bros. Studio Tour London - The Making of Harry Potter, a great day out for all the family!
