Festive Foodbank Reindeer Run - Glasgow
The Festive Foodbank Reindeer Run takes place on 13 December 2026 at Bellahouston Park in Glasgow. The event is organised by Body & Sole Fitness to raise donations for Trussell Trust foodbanks in and around Glasgow. Donations will be transferred directly to local food banks, and the organiser suggests a minimum donation of £20 per runner.
The event uses a marked 5k course measured with GPS and timed with a stopwatch rather than chip timing. The route starts by heading onto Mosspark Boulevard, re-enters the park at the second left, completes 1.5 anti-clockwise laps of the cricket pitch, then loops past The Palace of Art and House for an Art Lover before returning to the track for a final lap to the finish. Subject to volunteer availability, the course will be marshalled.
Race numbers can be collected from the registration tent at the start point by the sports centre car park between 10:00 and 11:00. The finish line is on the track and participants are asked to avoid the grass where recent wildflower planting has taken place. Foam antlers are available at the registration tent for those who wish to wear them.
Prizes are planned for the top three donations courtesy of local donors, and sponsors include Migo Sports and Up and Running Events. Children under 16 may take part when accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Free parking is available and refunds are offered up to seven days before the event.
