Get your Santa hats ready for this years Christmas Run!

The RunThrough Run MediaCity Christmas 5k & 10k takes place on Saturday, December 20 at 9.30am

By Cathal Doherty on December 2, 2025

Grab your Santa hat or reindeer antlers and join hundreds of festive runners at the RunThrough Run MediaCity Christmas 5k & 10k in support of Moya Cole Hospice. 

Moya Cole Hospice is proud to be the charity partner of this celebrated event, starting and finishing in the heart of MediaCity, Salford.  

You’ll head out around a flat, quick 2.5km loop that runs over the canal and past the Imperial War Museum, ITV and BBC television studios.  

Each kilometre will be accurately marked out, and there are plenty of helpers to encourage you on your way to the finish line. 

Run in memory of a loved one, for a personal challenge, or simply to support the compassionate care we provide at Moya Cole Hospice. Every mile you conquer helps us continue to offer essential support to our patients and their families. 

You’ll get loads of perks, including a unique themed medal, free official race photos, chip-timed results, post-race goodies, a hospice running vest or t-shirt, a fundraising pack with fun ideas and tips, training plans to prepare you for the race, and a friendly events team who support you all the way.
