Hundreds of people dressed up in red and white Santa Claus costumes for the seventh annual charity run in Athens, Greece. They ran a 2-kilometer course around Athens Olympic Athletic Center.

And for the first time, organizers provided children’s Santa uniforms for youngsters.

The entry fee is 12 euros each, but most of the money raised comes from corporate sponsorships. This year’s proceeds will go to the Make-A-Wish Greece foundation to grant the wishes of critically ill children.
