Hey everyone, as you may know, I was diagnosed with Guillain Barre Syndrome in October 2021 and left my physical rehabilitation hospital in February 2022. I was fully paralysed by this condition and I am fortunate enough to now count myself as fully recovered. This was a challenge I could never have predicted facing in my life. So, to challenge myself further (and possibly to spite a doctor who told me I'd never be an athlete again...) I have signed up to run the 2023 Edinburgh Half Marathon for Macmillan Cancer Support (please see my other fundraiser for this cause). I would be so grateful if you could take the time to sponsor me and to motivate me in my training. I have additionally set up this fundraising page for GAIN charity (which is an organisation dedicated to helping people affected by Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), CIDP, and the associated inflammatory neuropathies) as I want to continue to support those less fortunate than myself who are living with consequent disabilities as a result of this condition. If you could give anything at all to either of these fantastic causes I would be extremely grateful. Please also send your support to my amazing, ambitious friends Amelia Lockhart-Hourigan and Olivia Kehoe who will be running it with me! Thank you :)
