Not to be out done by the SRC Juniors who enjoyed a 12 days of Christmas challenge run with cake and chocolate to finish for their last session before Christmas over 40 Sidmouth Running Club members joined the last club run before Christmas to make it a very festive evening and all the more special having the company of Jo Pavey MBE.

With a prize for the best fancy dress up for grabs there were many colourful outfits on display as they headed up from St Johns School to Bennetts Hill, the best light display in Sidmouth.

The Mighty Green choir sang Silent Night and popped donations in the collecting box for Sidmouth Independent Lifeboat before continuing round the cul-de-sac to The Volley who were treated to a rousing rendition of We Wish You A Merry Christmas!

Not for the first time Radway cinema goers were entertained with a festive run through the aisles before another burst of We Wish You A Merry Christmas for the Radway pub revellers.
On return the Mighty Greens were treated to mulled wine and mince pies (thanks to Nikki King) and Jo presented the best fancy dress prize to Leeann Thomson who ran like an angel, her gossamer wings twinkling all the way.
