Kettering Christmas 10k & 5k

Come dressed to impress Santa and join GBR Run for the return of this Christmas themed event at the picturesque Wicksteed Park! The races will use the same course as 2025 and avoid the grass and will use the tarmac roads and hard gravel paths within the park.   Once again, we will have a range of distances with 10km, 5km and 3km races plus, with the Kids Dash, there’s a distance for all the family.
‍
This will be a chip timed event, with a bespoke Medal and Christmas goodies at the finish. The overall top 3 male and female finishers for each distance will be awarded trophies, as well as the following age group categories for the 10k only:
‍
Male and female 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70+. Age categories are based upon age at day of race. Top three finishers will be excluded from age category prizes. Prizes will also be on offer for the best festive outfits! Our running events appeal to all abilities - from social runners taking the plunge into their first race, to some of the best local athletes. We strive to create an environment where all runners are encouraged to achieve their personal goals, no matter what their ability. Wicksteed Park is a great venue for this event with plenty of parking, toilets and refreshments on offer. For more information on Wicksteed Park, please visit their website here.
