But wait, there’s myrrh…  the challenge includes an optional distance challenge.  Depending how far you run over your 13 (or more) runs, you will be awarded with a bespoke digital finishers certificate to download and share:

  • A round of santa-plause – 30 Miles
  • Run Run Rudolph – 60 miles
  • There’s snow stopping you – 100 miles

There is a separate Christmas challenge for runners aged 14 years and under:  The Little Star challenge is for ages 9 & under, and The Nightmare Before Christmas challenge is for ages 10 to 14 years.
