Santa's Special is a festive 4.5 mile trail race organised by Kimberworth Striders in Rotherham. Starting and finishing beside the Millmoor Juniors training ground in Kimberworth, the event takes runners through the surrounding woodland on a two lap course.
The route features woodland trails, uneven ground and changes in elevation, creating a challenging winter trail race. Conditions are often muddy and slippery in December, adding to the demands of the course. The varied terrain makes this a rewarding event for runners comfortable with off road surfaces and winter conditions.
Santa's Special forms part of the KMR Series, organised jointly by Kimberworth Striders, Maltby Running Club and Rotherham Harriers. The event has a friendly seasonal atmosphere, with prize presentations and refreshments traditionally taking place at a local pub afterwards.
