Santa Dash was great fun. My 10 year old and his friend loved ' the army of Santas- must have been over 300 peeps! All in aid of the Isle of Wight Hospice.

Hi Aliboo! Yay, a fellow Isle of Wighter... Well fancy that! I do quite fancy having a go at a park run but ;

1) Saturday's at 9am are hectic in our house! Eldest boy rows from the Folly, and youngest has footy in Wootton ! I struggle to split myself in two when my hubby at work...

2) I'm a bit scared...

Having said that over the Xmas hols I'm guessing there may be a Saturday that the rowing and footy are cancelled and I may be feeling brave!

When is medina Santa park run? Xx

Fabulous. Love the photo. Ours was a lot smaller at about 80 Santas but lots and lots of children which was great. Ours was also for our local hospice.

Great photo. Looks like fun. And a great cause too. My Santa run in Southsea is next Sunday - my first official run since graduating. Looks like it should be fun too.
