The Weston Christmas Cracker is a festive 10K race organised by Weston Athletic Club, starting on the beach beside the Grand Pier in Weston-super-Mare. The flat course combines seafront tarmac and sandy beach sections, with hundreds of runners traditionally taking part in colourful Christmas fancy dress.
Runners tackle a mixed terrain route along the Somerset coast, with the changing surfaces adding variety to the otherwise level course. The race welcomes a wide range of abilities, with marshals and distance markers along the way. A separate Junior Cracker covers approximately one mile entirely on the beach, giving younger runners their own festive race.
The event features chip timing, finisher medals, complimentary race photographs and prizes for leading runners and creative fancy dress. Race headquarters are based at The Royal Hotel, where refreshments and baggage storage are available. The Christmas atmosphere and distinctive seaside course make this a colourful end to the racing year.
