The Big Elf Fun Run - Marston Moretaine
The Big Elf Fun Run is a fundraising community event for Mind BLMK held on Sunday 29 November 2026 at The Forest Centre in Marston Moretaine, Central Bedfordshire. The event aims to raise money for mental health and wellbeing services across Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes. Organisers encourage participants who can to fundraise a suggested minimum of £30. One pound from every ticket supports The Forest Centre.
The event is inclusive and non competitive. Participants may run, jog or walk on a mainly flat trail with a gravel surface; some areas may be uneven. The route follows a main cycle and walking path. The event is not chip timed and participants may time themselves privately.
Distances:
- 5 km community fun run
- 200 m Dasher Dash for preschool and primary aged children
Children take part in age groups after a festive warm up and must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. All adult participants receive a finishers medal and mince pie. Children in the Dasher Dash receive a medal.
Practical details include limited free parking for participants on a first come first served basis with number plate registration at reception, step free access and facilities in the building including automatic doors, a baby changing facility and a disabled toilet with a lift to upstairs. Dogs are allowed on short handheld non extendable leads. There is no official bag drop; a secure room is available at personal risk.
