The Christmas Cracker is a fun, friendly Christmas themed road race.  So come and join us and help get some Christmas cheer going by running in fancy dress around the Warwickshire countryside. There will be some great spot prizes for the best Christmas fancy dress.

Runners leave the college via John Davies Drive, a lovely long downhill. The route then winds its way through the country lanes to the picturesque village of Ashorne, passing the drinks station at 5km. There is a climb at 6km after which the route is fairly flat until 9km. Here competitors run back up John Davies Drive and into the college grounds where the 10km finishes and the 20km runners head back out for another lap.

The Kids Fun Run Starts at 09:15 and will  last for 20 minutes, the children can run as many laps as they wish of a 250m course and will receive a medal when they have finished. It is entirely within the College grounds.

NB Access to the College grounds is not permitted at any other time 

Registration opens at 08:00 and closes promptly at 09:30. Numbers will not be posted out. They must be collected from registration.  

The 10km and 20km start 50m apart, with the 20km runners at 10:00 and the 10km at 10:02.
