Tips & Advice

  • Come in festive fancy dress. It's highly encouraged, and you'll join a crowd of jingling Santas around Frimley Lodge Park.
  • Register online before it closes on 4 December to avoid the surcharge on every entry made on the day.
  • Collect your race pack well before your start, since the 5K goes first and the Fun Run follows the trophy presentation.
  • Print the free 'I'm Jingle Jogging for…' or 'in memory of…' sign and pin it to your t-shirt to show who you're running for.
  • If you're bringing under-16s, plan for an adult to stay with them for the whole run, because that is required.

Special Events & Promotions

  • The route has been changed for 2026.
  • Free Charity Place entry if you pledge to fundraise. Reach the higher target and you get a free running tech t-shirt or vest.
  • Family entries cover two adults and two children for both the 5K and the Fun Run. Children aged 2 and under go free in the Fun Run.
  • A trophy presentation follows the 5K, before the Fun Run starts.
