Last night “David Walliams Big Swim” was shown on BBC One, documenting his time swimming over 140 miles through the River Thames. He burned 68,000 calories and saved one dog on his journey, undergoing the most intense swimming endurance feat in history. John Bishop also underwent an incredible journey from Paris to London on both land and sea in just 5 days of running, cycling and rowing. He cycled 185 miles in one day and then rowed across the English Channel before running 3 marathons in 3 days into London. And they did it all for Sports Relief. Arriving on our television screens on the 23rd – 25th March, Sports Relief has won over many celebrities who have taken part in sport activities to raise money for the cause. Here at Hollywood, we are doing our best to support Sports Relief with Lenny the Lobster, the 188 brothers and Zippy, along with others, making an appearance at the Hollywood Fancy Dress Shops and Field and Trek to train for Sports Relief. Their bravery and strength will feature in an upcoming video update from Hollywood Fancy Dress shop right here in the coming days, so watch this space! So as you can see, we’re doing our bit over here for Sports Relief, are you? With thousands of costumes available to buy and hire at both of our stores, make this Sports Relief raise a record breaking amount of money, and do your bit to help a worthy cause. It doesn’t need to be a long endurance feat or a huge amount of money raised – just a few pounds given to Sports Relief could make a huge difference, and we think you should have a blast doing it.
