Story

Well here we are again...donning ridiculous games character costumes and running around the streets of London! Though, as always, it's for an excellent charity called SpecialEffect (www.specialeffect.org.uk) who do amazing work and are dedicated to helping ALL young people with disabilities to enjoy computer games.

This video link http://vimeo.com/38094926 shows Chloe and Ella using a Microsoft Kinect together for the first time. Giving these two young friends the ability to enjoy games alongside everyone else has had a major impact on their quality of life.

That's why we're not doing this purely for fun – it’s much more important than that! Please spare a little (or a lot ;o) of cash to help enrich the lives of more people like Chloe and Ella...Oh and if you do then you will get a post-race photo of Andy and I dressed as bedraggled Angry Birds...that's got to be worth a tenner of anyone's money :o)

Thanks very much, Kirsty & Andy xxxxx
