SRC World famous Christmas Handicap Race -Wednesday, 10 December 2025, Hagley Park

Many traditions come with the festive season, for SRC it’s the 5km handicap race.

And, again, there is a twist … it’s not how fast you are but how accurate you are based on your predicted time. If you are more than 3.25% quicker than you say, don’t expect to be on the podium. That’s the qualifying limit to have a counting time. (For those who need some easier maths, it’s about 2 seconds per minute).  

There is more than just bragging rights , there is a trophy up for grabs.

When:  Wednesday, 10 December

Start:   First runner will head off at 5.40pm
