Route information
The Dinton Santa Dash returns for its 7th year, bringing festive fun to Dinton Pastures Country Park in Wokingham. Bring family and friends along and get running in your Santa suit to start a new Christmas tradition! Choose to run either the 2k Mini Dash or the full 5k Dash and get your hands on a Santa suit, Christmas-themed medal and mince pie/chocolate.
Starting near the playground, the 5k takes in the three lakes at the park - the Black Swan, Sandford and White Swan. The 2k Mini Dash is a one-loop course taking in both the White Swan and Black Swan Lake.
This event is in support of First Days Children's Charity, with £2 of every entry being donated to them. This money will provide local children with a bed to sleep in this winter.
