Thank you so much to everyone who sponsored me - your generous donations have helped the Gorilla Organization raise over £100,000 already. Donations are open until the end of November so if you haven't already, there's still time to swing them a few bucks!
Photos from the day can be found on Flickr, in case you didn't believe anyone would be crazy enough to run around a capital city dressed as a great ape.
Update! Thanks to all you lovely people I have now broken my original £500 target with two weeks to spare! I really appreciate each and every donation. Can you help me hit my new target of £600?
As a big fan of all things simian, the idea that there are fewer than 800 mountain gorillas left in the world pains me greatly.
It's really the least I can do to don a comedy gorilla suit for The Great Gorilla Run on the 22nd of September and raise as much money as I can so that The Gorilla Organization can continue their work helping local people to live in harmony with our furry cousins.
So, if you could spare even just a few quid/bucks/Euros to sponsor me, I would really appreciate it.
For now I have set my target at £500600, but with your help I can smash through that and keep raising the bar.
Thanks for reading! Wishing you many double rainbows, Kris
