Story

Hi.  Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online. 

On Sunday May 18th at I shall be participating in the Great Manchester Run. The race is 10km long and I will be running for Team Hallé, celebrating the 150th Anniversary Year of the Hallé orchestra.  For more information, please visit their website.

Just to make things interesting I thought I'd add a gambling element.  The concept is simple.  You guess my time to the nearest minute and set a price per minute.  For every minute your guess differs from my actual time you multiply the price per minute by the number of minutes difference.  For example, say you choose £1 per minute and guess I'll do it in 55 minutes and it only takes me 50, you have to donate £5.  Simple, huh?  I won't be dropping too many hints, but I think it's safe to say it'll take me more than 30 and less than 60. 

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Charles Halle Foundation will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.

Michael
