Whilst on the run, he will wear the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.raspberrykiss.me\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Raspberry Kiss<\/strong><\/a>. The Kiss is a small Raspberry Pi-powered device (pictured) that allows people to track Lee as he runs the marathon (via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.raspberrykiss.me\/\" target=\"_blank\">a map on his website<\/a>). At the same time, the device will be checking his home server (also a Raspberry Pi) to see if anyone has donated to his cause. If it picks up a donation, the worn Pi will be notified and will trigger a vibration alarm via an Adafruit motor. <strong>So, if you make a donation on Sunday after Lee has started, you will\u00a0trigger the notification and give him a buzz and\u00a0propel him onwards!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a fantastic idea and I wish Lee all the luck in the world with his run. <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/uk.virginmoneygiving.com\/LeeB\" target=\"_blank\">If you&#8217;d like to donate, follow this link<\/a>. Obviously, it&#8217;s best if you wait until Sunday<\/strong> and that&#8217;s why Lee has put up a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.raspberrykiss.me\/\" target=\"_blank\">sign-up form for a mailing list<\/a>\u00a0(scroll down a bit)\u00a0that he will send out to shortly before he starts.
