    No, practice. You practise running, but this is a run for practice - it's a compound noun, if there is such a thing ?

    ? You lost me on 'No, practice'.

    Thanks - it's for a diary invitation and I really don't want to look any dumber!

    Tip*:

    When you're not sure about such matters, a good strategy is to google both and go witht he one that gets the most hits.

    If you repeat the word practice over and over it starts to look really weird..
