Royal Parks Half Marathon 2018 · 14 October 2018 ·

Over 150,000 of us in the UK have MS. It’s unpredictable and different for everyone. But it doesn’t have to be this way. We’re the MS Society. We understand what life’s like with MS. We're here for you through the highs, lows and everything in between. Together, we are strong enough to stop MS.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

So I find myself embarking upon a half marathon, why? I am asking myself the same question whilst I struggle with training!  Back in January I joined a running club and have been hitting the streets come snow, rain and very hot sunny weather conditions, to get myself from a non runner to completing 13.1miles half marathon.

My incredibly brave husband was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis five years ago, a life changing diagnosis that comes with a daily challenge. He fights MS with a smile and never complains.  Everyday I see his pain and discomfort from his symptoms.  I see changes and have to watch him struggle most days.  Whilst I cant do anything to take away his pain, I can at least challenge myself to try and raise some much needed awareness and money for the Multiple Sclerosis Charity.

If I can raise a small amount of money to help study and research for a possible cure, we and many other MS sufferers have hope.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my page, if you can help with a small donation Rob and myself would be very grateful for every penny raised.

Rob you are my hero, this is all for you.

With love and thanks,
