It's a simple story - I run, I'm vegan, I like animals. My running kit is a technicolor mess of bits and pieces, so I can only run at night. The Dark Skies Marathon (and a bit) starts at dusk on Easter Saturday, so I figure I'm safe there. 

I only do one charity event a year in the hope people don't get sick of me (well, not for the requests for donations, at least) so this is your 2016 opportunity right here.

Dr Hadwen Trust promote medical testing without the use of animals and research into alternatives. This is a good thing.
