The Mince Pie 10 is a festive 10-mile race held in Peacehaven, East Sussex, organized by Seaford Striders. The multi-terrain course features about six miles of farm tracks and bridleways, with the remaining four miles on quiet roads, including a challenging hill around mile six. Participants can expect muddy conditions and a lively Christmas atmosphere with fancy dress encouraged and seasonal music.

The event supports two charities: Rockinghorse Children's Charity and St Wilfrid's Hospice. Highlights include bespoke recycled-material medals, mince pies at the finish, free photos, and massages available for donation. The race is popular and sells out quickly, with no on-the-day entries.
