Join us for a 5k and 10k off road trail event with a super sprouty Christmas theme, our 3k Pyjama Express or the amazing Rudolphs Revenge 10k 'night time trail run'

All our Christmas events have been hugely popular and great fun for us, so we're really please to be bringing a big collection of Christmas events to the wonderful Normanby Hall Country Park.

It's a perfect day out for the family and running clubs... we've got space for your club tent and great facilities to keep you amused for the day, either running or cheering on your club mates! 

The Great Sprout Scuttle 5k & 10k:

A trail run in fantastic surroundings on a lovely course, (based on Decembers weather expect to be seeing a few muddy spots ... but it's a lovely off road trail run and normally great running conditions (and you get to see the deer). 

We're have a 5k & 10k option on the day :)... The 5k is the DOG friendly event!

The event is held on a 5k loop (so 10k is two loops... you could have probably worked that out!) 

EVERYDAY WERE BRUSSELING!

The Pyjama Express:

Curly’s and Lindsey Lodge Hospice have partnered up once more to bring back our great value and festive family fun run, The Pyjama Express!

The Pyjama Express is pulling into Scunthorpe and it's YOUR ticket to a Christmassy adventure!

Dash through a 3km route in your comfiest PJs and conquer FIVE festive fun-zones!

Your mission:

Snag a golden ticket (it's your key to Christmas cheer!)

Gobble down a delicious candy cane

Score a tasty cookie (because running = hungry!)

Grab your hot choc cone

Get your ticket stamped - proof of your Christmas spirit!

The grand finale? Board Normanby Halls' version of The PJ Express! Capture the magic and board the land train at the station for a photo op and take home a commemorative Curly’s event medal for bragging rights!

Last year places for the Pyjama Express sold out in record time, so we have added 200 extra places!

Grab your place quick, because once they are gone they are gone!

The event is a non-stop afternoon of excitement, as we set off in waves of 150 to allow you lots of space to complete your run. This run is untimed, giving you the freedom to enjoy the course with your family.

Please ensure children under 9 are accompanied by an adult. Don’t forget everyone joining in requires an entry ticket – it’s your passport to fun!

The Pyjama Express: Your new Christmas tradition.

Rudolphs Revenge - night time 10k trail run:

We know Santa only picks the best of the best to pull his sleigh, so this course was designed by lead reindeer Rudolph, to make sure the sleigh team has 'the right stuff' to deliver the best Christmas ever!
Heading out from the Hall and out of the main park grounds, you disappear off into the winter wonderland woods, past the Deer park for two 5k loops so you get to enjoy the 'night'.

Earn your antlers and whatever you do ...DON'T FEAR THE DEER!

ps: you need a head torch!!! 

Super Santa:

The 'ultimate' Santa endurance challenge! 

You start the day at 11:30 with the 10k Great Sprout Scuttle, then from 14:30 you join the Pyjama Express 3k event .... in the evening you join the final event another 10k but in the dark with the Rudolphs Revenge! 

It's a great way to earn your Christmas treats and a great option if you fancy running for charity :) ... we've given free spots to our charity partners, or you could run for your own charity, a nice thing to do at Christmas.

.... HO HO HO runners!
