Well, they said it was a 5k, so seemed like a good way to start week 5. Turned out to be 5.5, but hey, what’s 500m between friends. For the last 2 or 3 years, I’d thought the Santa Run would be good fun, but never did it because I couldn’t run. What a difference a year makes. Finished it in 39.25, had fun and got my first ever bling. Yay!

Thanks Cheeky. It did get a bit warm but they are actually thinner than they look - and I did have a little extra ventilation having bent down a little too enthusiastically to tie my laces😲
Well done Sandie1961 on running at your local Santa 5K fun run, you did better than me, I was at my local 5K Santa fun run, but I was a spectator cheering the runners on😊🤶🎅🎄
Well done Sandie, what a jolly band of Santas you are. I bet you didn’t wear those beards for running though. UpTheStanley says he can’t breathe with his on. I need to make a few alterations to his trousers too. Only 7 sleeps until we do ours- can’t wait. I’m like a kid really. 🎅🏻🤶
I’ve got the Mrs Santa dress so at least I can wear leggings. It is tighter than the Santa jackets though. 🤶🎅🏻
Ho Ho Ho! 🎅🏻 Brilliant Sandie good for you! Nice bit of festive bling there 👍 and they managed to save a fake white beard for next year as your friend in the pic had thoughtfully bought his own one along with him 😁 Great job 🎄
🤣🤣 Still, I don’t think his tickled as much as mine did! Mind you, all I saw was the back of him, as he’s a marathon runner and did this little jog in about 20 minutes! Known each other since school - 41 years 😫😫
Crikey... now he really is quick! 😲...a great friend too by the sounds of it 😊
Yes, they have also been our skiing buddies for the last 25 years. We started out with 5 of us, increased to 9 as the families grew and are now back to 4 empty nesters as all kids have flown 😥
