My story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I´m donating to the Multiple Sclerosis Society. My cousin fought against this for many years and I thought the least I could do is try to raise some money for this worthy charity.
A half-marathon is a real challenge for me as I´ve never ran more than 10k in my life (and that only once!). So please dig deep and give me even more motivation to support the fight against this thing. Many thanks!
Update - it´s Sept 12th and after a visit to the physio, followed by yards of strapping up my foot, I did another 10K tonight. It was hard around 6-7k but I was flying at the end. Foot hurts a lot though! I´ve put it on ice and lets see how it fares tomorrow...20 days to go!!!
Update 2 - 18th Sept and yesterday I did 16k in the morning sunshine. So tired at the end and today I feel completely empty. Hopefully a good night´s sleep will sort me out!
OCTOBER 4th - I did it! Thank you to everyone who donated and to everyone who was waiting to see if I could do it, I did!
For anyone who is interested, all money donated through this page is specifically earmarked for medical research. Thank you!
