I must be mad.

I've just paid £26 for the privilege1 of running2 10km through Manchester City Centre on 21 May.
It's the Great Manchester Run, sponsored by BUPA, and I'll be running2 with the Marie Curie team. Possibly foolishly, I've told them I'll be doing it in fancy dress (as an excuse to walk), and on the application form explained that I'll be running2 in a corset in "support" of Mum's breast cancer.
As well as that, MC have offered to cover me in daffodils. If anyone wants to sponsor me, I'll be most grateful.
Like I said. I must be mad.

1 Oooh look, I can spell.
2 For "running", read "walking".

Oh well, it's an excellent cause and reason. Do you have a sponsorship page (justgiving, etc) yet?

When would be good for you?
