Daddy Pig takes on London Marathon with Joe Wicks after son George’s hearing loss diagnosis

Daddy Pig has picked up his running trainers as he hit the road with Joe Wicks to train for the London Marathon.

In a montage posted on Instagram on Thursday (9 April), the fitness coach can be seen running and lifting weights with Daddy Pig in preparation for the 26.2 mile endurance challenge on 26 April.

Peppa Pig's father will be running the TCS London Marathon to raise money for the National Deaf Children's Society, after it was announced earlier this year that George Pig is moderately deaf and needed to be fitted with a hearing aid.

He is aiming to raise £54,000 for deaf children and their families.
