Story

I'm running the Paris Half Marathon to raise money for a wonderful charity - MS Research in memory of my dad, who died of MS at only 46. Before he got ill Dad was super active and loved so running, sailing, canoeing, anything active really! MS is a cruel disease and unfortunately dad had a particularly severe form of it. MS Research are a fantastic charity who are working tirelessly to find treatments for MS, so hopefully one day other families won't have to go through what we did. Thank you so much for your support.

p.s it's 10 years since I last ran a half marathon, so I need all the luck haha!

About the charity

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is the most common cause of disability in young people. Once diagnosed it will affect the rest of a person's life. The charity MS Research is “Looking forward to seeing the back of MS!” We aim to fund high quality research and to seek better ways of treating MS.
