Daddy Pig Runs for Deaf Children

0:00It's March 31st, entertainment and celebrity news today starts now, AI-powered and spotlight ready. I'm Corey with the story. Daddy Pig, from Peppa Pig, just landed the cover of Runner's World magazine, right alongside stars like Harry Styles and Sir Mofera. He's training hard for the London Marathon next month, that full 26.2 mile grind, all to raise cash and awareness for the national. Deaf Children's Society. This comes after his son, George, got diagnosed with moderate hearing loss in one year. He's not just running it on the show in a new episode. He's lacing up in real life too, rocking a custom pig costume. Daddy Pig says jumping in muddy puddles is killer cardio that folks overlook and he's juggling jogs to the office with piggyback rides for Peppa and George, the whole family's hyped, mapping out spots to cheer him on race day. Peppa whipped up a motivation playlist with bangers like Pig Pony Club and Uptown Oink, even dropped her own track called Coach Peppa's Exercise.

1:01They've got creative fundraisers going, steering clear of Peppa's wild sponsored loudness idea. This ties into a big storyline on the show where George gets a hearing aid after his doctor's visit, pushing inclusive messages for kids. The society has hooked the family up with solid advice since the diagnosis, so Daddy Pig wants to pay it forward with the team's 50 other runners. Catch the full interview in the May issue of Runner's World UK out April 1st and tune into the marathon episode on milkshake starting April 18th. Family goals in motion.
