ACE runner Roger Lyon is getting worried about his 'dogged' look.
The Radio Merseyside DJ took part in the London Marathon and, in the true spirt of things, raised money for his chosen charity - The Guide Dogs For Blind.
Roger dressed as a labrador - with floppy ears, nose and tail and ended up in the pages of the Evening Standard.
The Guide Dog people now want to adopt the costume for other charity runs." And Roger says he was in for a surprise when he went back to his hotel via the tube to get changed.
"I sat there in my dog outfit and was talking to an old lady who asked if I had been running for charity. I told her I didn't go about looking like this all the time. She must have thought I was barking mad."
