Team members at the Scottish SPCA’s Ayrshire Animal Rescue and Rehoming Centre are to attempt 30km in 30 days…and are planning to do the challenge dressed in inflatable T-rex costumes.
Assistant manager of the centre Lynda Hourston and animal care assistant Cara MacDonald will be aiming to complete the challenges during August.
Lynda said, “We decided to do some of the distance dressed as dinosaurs because, as well as raising money for an important cause, we wanted to spread some much-needed joy in these strange times.
“Neither of us can run the length of ourselves (we are both quite short, so that’s not very far at all) so running without wearing an inflatable dinosaur suit is a challenge in itself.”
They’ve named their challenge team the Danger Lizards.
