Any of you that know me will probably know I am not an athlete and I absolutely hate running. So it may be a surprise to you that I have signed up to RUN (!!!) in The Colour Run for Contacting the World (and it is a bit of a surprise to me too!). 

Contacting the World is a biennial festival celebrating cross cultural collaboration. It brings young people from across the world together with the common aim of creating new collaborative performance work, whilst enabling them to forge new relationships and work with people with completely different backgrounds and cultural perspectives from themselves. You can find out more about the Contacting the World festival by visiting www.contactmcr.com/contactingtheworld 

 I'm not joking when I say I am terrified. This will be my first ever race. Your support would mean a lot, and might get me round a little faster!
