Santas Getting Sporty

Santa has to keep his jollu body fit with all those presents he needs to deliver, right children?

Here are ten of the best fit Santas, a bizarre visual to associate with a fat old guy with a beard, I know. But there are so many shots of him swimming or jogging, I could not walk away from this one. If you ever wanted to swap your traditional Santa fur for a wetsuit or spandex, what more inspiration do you need?

And what a brilliant photo stunt - swimming and jogging Santas!

2,200 Santas participating in the traditional 1.5 kilometer Great Scottish Santa Run.

The second Santa is a bit too close to zentai Santa, even for me - he also looks like a power ranger. Why he is dressed in such a spandex-tastic outfit is not explained.
