My Story

I started running doing the C25K as a challenge for my 60th birthday. Which was 20 years after my MS diagnosis. I had a place for 2020 but Covid got in the way, I did run virtually, but I'm delighted ( and very nervous) to have a deferred place this year.

I'm running for the MS society because I was so lucky, research had produced a drug that slowly became available in the UK, I was an early recipient. I'm still taking the drug today and whilst it's not a cure...without it, well who knows. So my fundraising is to help all those diagnosed and future individuals with MS, maybe one day a cure. 

Thank you to all those folk who sponsored me for my virtual in 2020, but if you'd like to do that again this year that would be wonderful.

Thank you!
