Everybody Chase The Dinosaur

Be a part of something truly special this February by signing up for Weymouth’s second beach dinosaur race on Saturday 15th February.

Last year, We Are Weymouth hosted the first ‘Chase the Dinosaur’ event, raising funds for the Will Mackaness Trust and kicking off the February half term in true Jurassic style.

Runners raised over £500 with hundreds turning up on the beach to watch the dino’s in action. There were over 100 runners and 30 preschoolers, all making the most of the glorious February sunshine.

This year we are hoping the event will be bigger and better than ever, for this great local charity, supported by D of E volunteers to adjudicate and ensure the smooth running of the event.
