Straight to the point: if my supporters help me reach my fundraising target for WaterAid, I will run the 2015 Bristol Half Marathon in golden running pants.

Through a combination of circumstances, involving a curious and a creative family member, I ended up owning a pair of golden running pants. Nice to keep in the cupboard as a curiosity maybe, or pass on to the next Kylie, but also an opportunity to do something special.

I've run this particular half marathon before in each of the last 5 years, raising money for WaterAid the first two times. Spectators will not need to worry that my race is over before it's properly started; even my personal best of just below 1:50 probably isn't going to improve. But I'll have fun doing it, and with a bit of luck the pictures will this time show more than wild hair and comfortable exhaustion.
