A HOST of Santas took a break from the race to get all the toys ready for Christmas – to race each other!
It's the fifth year the event has been staged by the Humberston Lions Club and, as always, it saw scores of charitable runners pulling on their red hats and beards to take on the two-and-a-half mile run through the resort.
The run started at the Discovery Centre, in King's Road, headed down the back of Cleethorpes Leisure Centre towards the pier and back again, with a shorter run for disabled people.
Entry was £10 per adult – including a Santa outfit, mince pie, competitor's medal and a glass of non-alcoholic wine at the end of the run – and £2 for children, with all proceeds going to a host of local charities.
