Winter has been and gone, dark nights are a thing of the past and Spring has Sprung, which all means one thing.....yes, it's Bunny time. They're eggciting, they're bunnylicious, they're cracking and only 3 miles long with a reward for everyone o f a Cadbury's Creme Egg! The Bunny Runs & series hop to it from Tuesday 5th April, with a chocolate prize list even a chocoholic would have problems coping with!
For the true Hares or those who dare amongst you, remember the 'Egg Stage', a fast and furious dash round the small loop will bring extra chocolate for the first man and lady past the hopping bunny sign. Then of course for those of you who want to have more fun, if that's possible, there always is the chance to win prizes in the fancy dress competition incorporated in the race.
All runners can also take part in the guess the winners time competition – guess what the prize is? AN EASTER EGG! See the clipboard at registration to enter.
The Bunnies are renowned for post race fun – free soup and roll in the Old Sun Hotel (revamped and now with the cheapest beer in Haworth) race video of that night's event on the big screen, stacks and stacks of Easter Eggs in an extensive prize list, watch in awe as the first man, lady and vet stagger under the sheer weight of goodies, then the finale the famous chocolate throw out! Here at the prize giving all runners are entered into a free prize draw with a choice of a large Easter Egg, a commemorative Prince William of Wales & Catherine Middleton tin of biscuits and 3 more lucky Bunny Bob Tailers are destined to feed their hunger craving, because the new managers Robert AKA 'Tubsey' and his wife Sarah have donated 3 baskets of delicious chips.
