About me: In a moment of inspiration / insanity while working one Saturday I hit upon the idea of running the London Marathon with a Karaoke machine tied to my back!
One month later and all that needs to be put in place is the sponsorship for Cystic Fibrosis so that if the new drug undergoing clinical trials is successful, all sufferers will have it available to them by 2009.
Go to:
I also need you to vote on the songs I sing while running the Flora London Marathon!(Texts cost £1, profits to Cystic Fibrosis)
I promise to sing the top 25 while running the streets of London on April 22nd!
