The Stig Confused - Who is the Twig?

Some say... all his legs are hydraulic. All we know is, he’s called THE TWIG!

Everyone taking part in the Minithon is very special - but we are proud to announce today a special guest runner.

Yes, The Twig is taking part in the Minithon on behalf of all FC Twitter followers.

But who is this mystery man?

You can view his justgiving page here: http://www.justgiving.com/twitter-runner/

Just like The Stig on Top Gear, The Twig will be keeping his identity secret as he attempts to get round the Minithon circuit as quickly as the F1 driver gets round the track"¦ possibly.

You won’t be able to miss him. He’ll be sporting a very fetching mask featuring the Twitter logo, as modelled on his justgiving page.

If you fancy sponsoring The Twig, please do - we’re hoping as many of our Twitter followers as possible will give just £2, or more if they wish.

If you use Twitter, be sure to look out for updates about The Twig - some will be from the man himself - and please re-tweet them if you can.
