And it's all in the name of charridee...

I can't remember the last time I coulnd't do fifty pushups.
Okay, that's a lie. I can remember, but the last time I couldn't do fifty pushups some of the people on my friends list hadn't been born and Paul McCartney and the Frog Chorus were still in the charts.
In case you hadn't guessed, I went off to Ninja High last night for the first time since my comedy injury, and boy, I'm sore this morning.

Umder normal circumstances, this wouldn't be interesting or important enough for me to fire up the ol' LJ, but something came out of the class last night. Chatting to Ninja Master* after the class, we came up with an idea to incentivise me to get fitter, faster.**
We're going to do a Sponsored Smackathon. Give it a couple of months for me to geet back into training, and we're looking at doing something like a Ninja-fest for charridee.
Obviously, we meed to find a good, worthy charity to support; something that will tug the heartstrings of the notoriously cheap bunch of skinflints whom I laughingly call my friends. Something like a support group for gay, one legged orphans with cancer. Something life affirming like that.
Can anyone suggest a good charity for this? (Current suggestions have included Save the Tiger, St Thomas' Hospital, Mind, The Samaritans and others)? And, perhaps more importantly, would anyone like to promise to sponsor me when we get round to it?

More details will be forthcoming, I'm sure.
