Runners in Witney are set to take part in a Christmas Day parkrun once again this year.

The free, weekly, timed 5km walk, jog, or run usually takes place every Saturday at 9am at West Witney Sports and Social Club.

Event organisers are set to also hold a run at the same venue on December 25 at 9am, weather permitting.

The Witney parkrun team said: "It's the news you've been waiting for.

"That's right, volunteers permitting, we are excited to be hosting a Christmas Day parkrun again this year."

The team are also planning to continue the weekly runs, which will take place on Saturday, December 21, and Saturday, December 28, but there will be no New Year's Day parkrun.

Organisers said on social media: "We'll shortly be sending out an email to everyone who has opted in to our volunteer announcements to fill the roster, so if you aren't opted in but would like to earn some festive hi-vis hero stripes, please comment below or email witney@parkrun.com."
