I am embarking on a strict diet and training regime for an important running event. I reckon I need to put on at least four stone. Oh, and I'd better start to grow a large white beard, fast.
Yes the team at Hope House-Ty Gobaith have press-ganged me for the Santa Fun Run in Oswestry on December 3.
They need more than 5,000 Santas to take part to win a place in the record books. The sponsor money raised raised will help fund crucial care for hundreds of terminally ill children and their families in North and Mid Wales plus Shropshire Cheshire through Hope House at Oswestry and the second hospice, Ty Gobaith in Conwy.
It's a 2.5 mile run (but take it at your own speed). To find out more or to sign up, visit www.hopehouse.org or call the appeals office 01691 671671.
Join in, it should be fun.
