The days are short, brightness is hard to come by, but don’t despair Great Gorillas, spring is in the post and before long you’ll be blessed with long, warm evenings and weekends for your Great Gorilla Run preparations.

In the meantime, here’s a bit of vivid-coloured, fantasy costume inspiration to bring light into the dog-days of winter.

Come be honest – who hasn’t fantasised about running through the streets of London as Pink Fairy Tutu Gorilla?

Well now’s your chance…

The Great Gorilla Run 2010 needs lots of fairy gorillas spreading smiles, joy and sprinkling clouds of fairy dust on the crowds as they saunter along the 7km course.

Fairy Gorillas – we love you!
