I really wanted to do this race with my mummy because I want to help anyone who doesn't have a home or warm bed. When I go out with my mum and dad, we often see homeless people sitting in the cold. This makes me feel really sad especially when they have their dogs with them. So this year I want to try and make a small difference by running round a massive park with thousands of people pretending to be Santa, dressed as Santa myself....... I don't think the real Santa will mind?
