My Progress

I'm walking 50 kms this month to leave MS behind

My Progress

51 KMS

My target

50 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 9,000 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!

3rd week. 1st day

Today it feels a lot easier, my left leg it’s better. 4Km left, hard to believe it. Hasn’t been easier at all but my family has helped me so much.

Almost there 🧡🎗️

As the 50K is approaching, I am trying to get as ready and strong as possible. We can do this, I can do this. It will be thought but I know I can do it. I know we can do it. Come on MS warriors, we can do this 🧡🎗️🥇 

Getting ready

Thank you all so much 🧡🎗️ I used to walk almost 5K every day before MS, now I can manage 3K on a good day and when my left leg allows me 😂. This challenge might be a bit hard but I am ready, the support has been AMAZING. Looking forward to the challenge.  MS warrior always. Xx
