My story

 

I have decided to take the half marathon challenge to push myself and prove I can do it!  In doing so, I wanted to take the opportunity to raise some money for a member of my extended family who has Motor Neurone Disease (MND) and has set up a charity to help those in a similar position: The North East Motor Neurone Disease Trust.

Motor neurone disease (MND) is a progressive condition that damages the nervous system, leaving muscles wasted and weak. This generally occurs in arms or legs initially, some groups of muscles being affected more than others. Some people may develop weakness and wasting in the muscles supplying the face and throat, causing problems with speech and difficulty chewing and swallowing. MND is generally a steadily progressive disease, but the rate of progression varies greatly from one person to another.

 

The main aim of the trust is to is to brighten the lives of those living with or affected by MND, more information can be found on its website: www.nemndt.co.uk
