Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Mark Bush, Nick Wright and Dan Stephen are currently in training for a 50k (31 miles) Ultra Race off road in Yorkshire at Easter on 19th April 2025.

Our chosen Charity is Parkinsons UK

May 2024 I noticed my hand/arm was shaking whilst watching TV. I went to the doctors and they couldn't say why it was so referred my to a neurologist specialist. Whilst waiting for the appointment I was also sent for an MRI scan on my back and neck as I was getting next pain and had lack of arm rotation on the left side. Very noticeable now during running. Sleep was terrible, arm pain at night felt like joint pain and muscle pain. MRI came back clear so I was convinced it was early Parkinsons.

Saw the neurologist in November who confirmed it was likely Idiopathic Parkinsons. Started on some Ropinorole, has helped with shaking for a bit but now come back again but arm weight is better. Slight rotation of arm whilst running now. Neck still aches.

Lucky I can still run, need to keep positive and fit as possible. Monday night core class at Bridie D'Arcy Fitness helps as does massages with Glenn Reid.

31 miles off road for a Charity that has helped myself and will continue to help others in the future.

Please check out my pictures progress.
