Santa Dash 2025
The Santa Dash is held at Ryde Esplanade (outside the Superbowl) on Sunday 7th December at 11:00am.
We will be meeting at the Superbowl around 9.45 to get registered and warm up.
The cost of entering is for a good cause and funds go to Mountbatten.
As part of your entry fee you get given a Santa Suit.
We have a walking team and a running team, so you don’t have to be an athlete.
Afterwards we go to Weatherspoons in Ryde for a well deserved breakfast.
