I happen to think that running even for a bus is a big achievement but i know that many people require something slightly more substantial as an accomplishment worth noting, a marathon perhaps. i cant give you a marathon, but i am going to be running for 10k at the end of December in Warwick (very north so very cold!) while swapping my clothes with my sister and any other willing participates. We'll start in one colour and finish in another, and with frost bite. This means that, at any one time, we'll either wearing head to toe colour or, even worse, clashing colours!

In recognition of this fashion humiliation, if not the sporting achievement involved, please sponsor me! the money will be going to SolarAid, a charity aimed at combatting climate change and poverty by bringing clean, renewable power to the poorest people in the world (http://solar-aid.org)
