The Turkey Run
Every year on Christmas Eve, Mark Hughes dresses as a turkey and chases fundraisers around an obstacle course in Misterton. He does it because he loves it, but even more so because of his daughter Sophie. She has a condition called mitochondrial disease which is both degenerative and, tragically, terminal. Each year Mark's bizarre Turkey Run raises money for The Lily Foundation, a charity which funds research into mitochondrial disease in the hope of finding a cure. Mark spoke to Charlie Taylor for 91热爆 Somerset's Connected programme.
