My Progress

I'm walking 500 km this May to leave MS behind

My Progress

516 KMS

My target

500 KMS

Support my challenge to leave MS behind!

I’m taking part in The May 50K. I will be taking on 50km throughout May and leaving my limits behind to raise funds for life-changing research into multiple sclerosis, better access to treatments and to support people living with MS in Ireland!

There are over 10,000 people in Ireland living with multiple sclerosis. At the MS International Federation and MS Ireland, it’s our mission to leave MS where it belongs, behind us.

You can now support this work in Ireland and around the world, so I’ve accepted The May 50K challenge to change lives.

Please make a donation to support my challenge.

Thank you so much!

My Updates

500 km in May

As many of you know, my dad was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis ten years ago. Watching his journey over the last decade has shown me firsthand the challenges those living with MS face, but also the incredible resilience required to navigate them.

To mark this 10-year milestone, I’ve decided to go a bit "overboard" for MS Ireland’s The May 50K. Instead of the standard 50km, I am committing to walking 500 kilometres throughout the month of May.

The money raised will go towards funding for life-changing research, better access to treatments, and support for the 11,000 people in Ireland living with MS.

Every kilometre I clock is a step toward leaving MS where it belongs—behind us.
