A group of Santas runs towards the finish line at St Clair Beach, Dunedin, yesterday in the inaugural Dunedin Santa Run.

Organiser Gillian Anderson, of Brighton Sea Scouts, said 125 people entered the fun run, which involved people dressed as Santa running 3km along the beach.

For the $28 entry fee, participants received a Santa suit and the opportunity to win prizes. Part of the entry fee also went to the KidsCan charity.

The Dunedin event was one of eight held simultaneously across the country.
