Running for the Cure

It’s all Ian Atlas’ idea.

The organizer of the Toronto Comedy Brawl, Ian Atlas, invited a bunch of comedians he knew to join him in what he’s calling “Hungover Stumble For The Cure“. Which is probably more accurate than Run For The Cure, since it does take place on a Sunday morning at 9am. Ouch.

I really enjoy doing my bit for Gilda’s Club and when Ian suggested getting involved in Run For The Cure I jumped at the chance. I intend to stroll with my dog Farfl and the other comics and their dogs and hope that the weather isn’t horrid. Not a bad way to spend a Monday morning!

If you’ve been impacted by cancer, either personally or through a friend of family member, I urge you to get involved. If you can’t do the run itself, please consider sponsoring me. The run takes place on Sunday, October 4th 2009. Our team is aiming to raise at least $1,000 to help find a cure for breast cancer. Please give generously. Thanks.
