My story

Not a natural pairing, but against all the forces of nature, we have come together to create a whirlwind of sporting prowess.

We are...

Vanessa: Aquarius , 5 ft 11

Sporting latecomer; lover of food, wine and good times; cat owner

Sally: Pisces, 5 ft 6

Sportswoman no-naturel; bedtime bathroom cleaner; dog owner

*********

NO!  We're not just going to ''get around"

NO! We're not going to do it in regular running apparel!

YES!!  We're going to do it quite quickly.

YES!!  We  will be in disguise!!

AND!!  We  will be worth every penny of the sponsorship money that you are generously donating.

ALL three thousand pounds (cheap at half the price.)

******

So what are you waiting for?  A snog?  We'll sell em for a tenner.

(In this case, it might well be better to give than to receive.)

Anyway, time to give girls and boys, it's this simple...

You can either,

GUESS THE DISGUISE

Yes, you can guess our disguise, trivial one might think but hey, this is for charidy mate! It'll only cost you £10, yes only 10 of your hard earned £'s.Pledge more guess more.

OR

BE BORING & GENEROUS

Give your money anyway and don't guess. ( : (We'll love you anyway! Especially if the sum is so HUGE you can't think of that many guesses.)

****

So there you go. We promise to:

1. Train our cotton socks off

2. Run our best

And

3. Do our duty to the Queen, looking bloody gorgeous as we round good old Buckingham Palace!

Ness & Sally
