Organiser's Description
The Alford Santa Run is organised by Athletics Trust Scotland as part of the Alford Christmas Festival, taking place on Sunday 26th November at the Grampian Transport Museum race track in Alford.
For the third year, we are delighted to organising this event and all the proceeds raised will go directly towards our Transforming Lives Project.

Santa Run Organiser and Fundraiser Kyle Greig said “The funds raised from the event will go towards our Transforming Lives project that aims to increase the diversity and inclusion of athletics and running by supporting people with a disability, those who are in poverty and ethnically and culturally diverse communities. We are super excited to be able to raise funds for those in need in the Aberdeenshire area."
For those who aren't looking to enter but would like to be involved, there are volunteering and sponsorship opportunities to help contribute to the costs of the Santa Suits and Medals so that all the funds raised can go directly to the athletes who need it most.
