The Rudolph Run brings festive fun to St Albans city centre in support of Rennie Grove Peace Hospice Care. Starting and finishing at Waterend Barn on St Peter's Street, the event welcomes families, friends and runners of all ages to take part in a seasonal charity fundraiser.
Participants can choose between a 1.5K fun run and a 5K route, both following pavements through the city streets. Runners and walkers are welcome, with marshals helping guide everyone along the course. The shorter distance is ideal for families and younger participants, while the 5K provides a longer festive challenge for those looking to get active and support a good cause.
Everyone taking part receives reindeer antlers and a finisher medal, with face painting and prizes for the best Christmas costumes adding to the atmosphere. Fundraising supports Rennie Grove Peace in providing specialist hospice care and support for local patients and their families.
