Boxing Day Festive Fun Run

For 2025 the Boxing Day run will be a simple ‘festive fun run’ – this change is necessary due to EA guidelines and insurance considerations as non club members are attending – a reflection of the world we live in.

Please come along (pre-register here to run or help) and have a fun run around the course followed by a social in the Cricket Club.

The route starts by the Methodist Church on Cock Hall Lane, Langley and finishes at Langley Cricket Club (Cock Hall Lane) – it is a 5k on quiet lanes. After the run there is a ‘social’ gathering to discuss the run and present the prizes!

NOTE: The 2025 Route has changed due to closed paths around Ridgegate Reservoir – this route avoids traffic. Click the ‘Route’ Tab below to see the route.

2025 – Organiser (Sally Ann Hales) and venue (Langley Cricket Club).

Note: This event is a ‘club social run’ and NOT a handicap race – this is due to EA guidelines and Insurance requirements as non-club members are attending.

Pre-registration preferred – Pre-Registration Form (to run or help)

The route was changed in 2025 to end at the Cricket Club (due to closed paths and to avoid traffic).
