T-shirts colour the Great North Run

Tuesday 03rd of October 2006 12:20:00 PM

Bedecked in an array of different costumes, the t-shirt clad fun-runners of the Great North Run raised thousands of pounds for their chosen charities at the weekend.

Costumes ranged from the Loch Ness Monster to Batgirl, as the runners made their t-shirts work as unique costumes.

Brothers Danny and Tom Fairlie did the race dressed as Mexican amigos in support of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution and the mental health charity Mind respectively, the Chronicle reports.

In fact, the variety of charities represented was as great as the t-shirts worn, with Nick Wilson from Northumberland running the Great North Run in support of a charity set up by himself and his wife.

Mr Wilson raised around £2,000 in sponsorship for Useful Vision, an aid organisation established in memory of his son who died of brain cancer, the newspaper reports.

Meanwhile, the pink t-shirts of Cancer Research UK were out in force, with one fun-runner, Phil Rogers, adding a pink feather boa and leg warmers to the costume to raise £2,000 for Breakthrough Breast Cancer.

The charity's pink t-shirts are also worn by a local rugby club with the aim of raising money for breast cancer research.
