To celebrate my 50th birthday, and to remember my Dad, the inspiration behind our communication charity, who sadly didn't make it beyond his 50th year, the boys and I will be running Run Reigate.

Not only am I passing a personal milestone, but so is Include. I ran the first ever pilot Include Choir session at Redhill Station 10 years ago this year.

So I had to do something to mark the occasion. And, inevitably, it's a bit silly. It was suggested that, as I am well known for running here, there and everywhere with Hattie, the Include Choir hatstand, it would be only fair if she joined me to run Run Reigate this year.

So I will be running 5k, with a hatstand, and collecting 10 'objects of reference' (the props which Include uses to remind everybody that communication is more than words) along the way.

Older... if definitely not wiser - I think my Dad might have approved.
