Story
I am running the London Marathon to raise money for Motor Neurone Disease.
My Grandad passed away from MND when I was younger, and this has always been a charity close to my families heart.
Having watched my sister complete the marathon recently, with my brother also running one and my Dad run two - it’s my time to step up to the challenge.
Time to cut down on the weekend beers, and buy some proper running shoes.. HERE. WE. GO.
Thank you for all your support and donations!
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.
