David Purcell
David's 25 over 5 Challenge
Fundraising for Multiple Sclerosis Society
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I was diagnosed with MS in September 2021 and following members of my family committing to fundraising for the MS Society, I couldn't sit back and not do anything.
So here’s the plan… My first run will be in March and I’ll take one on as often as possible through to November. It’s going to be a challenge but I think I can do it and as a wise man said to me earlier today, we’re not out to break records. I simply want to finish. If it takes me several hours and I end up walking most of it, so be it.
Things have had to change a little bit due to me needing to skip a run or two due to health reasons! The new schedule stands at…
- Run Heaton - 20 March - Completed
- Run MediaCity - 29 September
Three other runs are to be decided and are health dependant.
I was originally hoping to raise £500 which will help the MS Society continue their amazing work but due to how amazing you all are, I’ve smashed that!!
