Mouth Cancer Walk, 19 Nov 2006, Hyde Park, London - Topic Powered by Eve Community

http://brendasob.blogspot.com/

I see from the information that all participants will be given a tee-shirt. Will this be before or at the end of the walk? I had intended buying a number so that my daughter and her 'team' could do the walk wearing them (should they chicken out of wearing fancy dress!) Please could you let me know before I order. Thanks, Brenda.

Hi Brenda
Every participant will be given a large or XL t-shirt to wear over their jacket before the walk. The t-shirts will have the participant number on them and it'll look great if everyone is wearing the t-shirt. If they've come fancy dress then we'll stick the participant number on their costume. Hope this answers your question!
All the best, Krishan

hi - I'd love to be there supporting everyone on this but

a) it's the day after I get back from a 2 week mountain bike holiday and

b) I'm already booked in to run the Brighton 10k that day!

so - I'll run the Brighton 10k in support of all those doing the London walk.............

I have just done a 'live' telephone interview for BBC Radio Essex about Mouth Cancer and the Mouth Cancer Walk in particular. As I live in the north east of England I just wondered if anyone in the south had heard it?? Regards
