If charging through a Royal Park dressed as Father Christmas is your thing then make sure you sign up to the annual Santa Fun Run before the December 10 deadline.

The 5km run, which takes place in Richmond Park on December 13 from 10.30am on behalf of the Princess Alice Hospice, will have hundreds of Santas running, skipping and strolling through the scenic route.
