Just forget about interpolation and such; declare a section for each 
run in your config file:

[run_name_one]
a=123
b=Test
c=4.0

[run_two]
a=456
b=Whatever
c=0.1

config = ConfigParser.ConfigParser()
config.read(filename)
a = config.getint('run_two','a') # a==456
b = config.get('run_name_one','b') # b=='Test'
section = 'run_two'
c = config.getfloat(section,'c') # c==0.1
