| Jeff Partridge of Swansea bought his 1000 Mile socks for the 1999 London Marathon and has been running in them on and off ever since. This year he got a place in the London Marathon for Action for Children and while training ran a 10k and two half marathons. He wrote to his local paper to raise awareness and hopefully sponsorship for the charity. After some publicity about his 'lucky socks', he put them on ebay where they fetched £30 - three times their original price!
