I have a bit of a penchant for vibrant socks. I think it began in the late eighties where neon sports socks seemed to be all the rage! As a student I was a hard worker and even head boy of my comprehensive school, but that did not mean I was a stranger to the odd detention! And the reason why?… Wearing brightly coloured socks!
There are over 500,000 young people with special needs in the UK, many of them with severe mental health problems, physical disabilities and life-limiting illnesses. The financial strain on their families can be enormous and for some a simple trip to the seaside or a week’s holiday is beyond their means.
The run is open to all, with a small £3 donation per runner to be donated to Happy Days Charity. There will be 30% off the Athletic collection until Wednesday 3rd June available at their Seven Dials store; of which all proceeds will be donated to Happy Days.
The run will start at 7.30am meeting at the Happy Socks store in Seven Dials (62 neal street), and the run will commence from there.
To RSVP and participate in the run email happysocks@sisterlondon.com. Everyone participating in the run will be entered into a prize draw to win a pair of Happy Socks for each week of the year and a 3-month gym membership with Fitness First. In addition all runners will receive a 3-day complimentary pass to Fitness First.
