The Harrogate Harriers is encouraging all local runners to stay active during the colder, darker months by taking part in a festive virtual event.
The '12ks of Christmas' challenge will see runners covering a 12km distance during the first 12 days of December - it can be done in one outing or spread over a few.
Due to covid restrictions the group has had to adapt and find new ways to keep its participants exercising. Its annual 10km had to move online in July this year but it hopes the 2021 event can go ahead in line with any covid restrictions.
The group has ran several other virtual events for its members during lockdown but this challenge, it says, is for everyone to get involved in.
For this fun Christmas challenge the group has teamed up with toynado.co.uk - a Tockwith-based toy company which is offering 12 toy prizes to be included in the daily draws.
