Jolly Holly Jog

The Jolly Holly Jog is a scenic 10-kilometre multi-terrain race held in Ripon, North Yorkshire. The undulating course mainly follows footpaths through parkland, starting at Hell Wath Nature Reserve and passing through Mackershaw Woods and Studley Deer Park. Runners experience varied terrain, including a short steep climb, before finishing back at Hell Wath.

The event supports the local Salvation Army food bank, encouraging participants to bring donations. Facilities include water stations, distance markers, and toilets, with race headquarters at Panthers Football Club. Prizes are awarded for top finishers and age groups, and the race is open to runners aged 15 and over. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
