I'm supporting Zoe who is going to be running in the London marathon to raise money for the Motor Neurone Disease Association. She has signed up a team of us to pledge to do a '7 in 7 challenge' for the first week of March. I've chosen to walk/run 7km every day for 7 days. I'm really grateful to anyone who donates to this worthy cause. 

Motor neurone disease (MND) is a progressive disease that attacks the motor neurones, or nerves, in the brain and spinal cord. This means messages gradually stop reaching muscles, which leads to weakness and wasting.MND can affect how you walk, talk, eat, drink and breathe. However, not all symptoms necessarily happen to everyone and it is unlikely they will all develop at the same time, or in any specific order.Although there is currently no cure for MND, symptoms can be managed to help you achieve the best possible quality of life.
