Ever wanted to be the big man in red? Now's your chance. London's largest Santa Run invites anyone who wants to work off a few mince pies to run around Victoria Park dressed as Santa. Don't worry if your suit is at the dry cleaners, a free costume is included in the entry price. You'll run, jog or walk around the park and depending on whether you choose to do the 5km or 10km course, you'll either go once or twice round the route. Run by fundraising specialists Skyline Events, the Santa Run expected to see thousands of people take part to raise money for hundreds of different charities. The main run is for adults and children over 8 however there's also a free mini Santa run for those under 8 which takes place just before the main run. Expect Christmas characters, festive music and snow to get you in the spirit.
