Rocking Around Victoria Park
London Santa Run

12th December 2019 | Fundraising

You did it!

A massive thank you to all our amazing Santas who turned out on a blustery Sunday morning for a mad festive dash around Victoria Park. The day kicked off with a flurry of costume changes as everyone got kitted out as jolly St Nick.

There was much debate over who got to wear the famous white beard—before the mini Santas did us proud in the opening race.

We were joined by old friends, partners and colleagues, and were excited to meet new supporters who had braved the cold to come and join us.

By the time the warm up started, everyone was in a festive mood and our HALO staff nailed the somewhat baffling dance moves.

Some opted to take on 5km and finished in style, whilst others thought the first trip round the park was so much fun they completed a second lap to make it 10km. (Or perhaps someone told them they'd get two mince pies?)

Collecting the coveted Santa Run medal was the perfect finish—time for a few more well-earned mince pies!

Even better, everything our Santa runners raised will be doubled by the UK government and go towards our Breaking Boundaries appeal.
