Over 150,000 of us in the UK have MS. It’s unpredictable and different for everyone. But it doesn’t have to be this way. We’re the MS Society. We understand what life’s like with MS. We're here for you through the highs, lows and everything in between. Together, we are strong enough to stop MS.

Story

I'm undertaking the 10 in 10 challenge - to walk 10 Lake District fells in 10 hours - in aid of MS Society UK. I'm doing this as part of Team Social Hiking - a group of 20 hikers who use the popular http://www.shareyouradventure.com site to track our walks, of which, the founder and driving force behind the team, Phil, himself has MS. 

The challenge equates to nearly 17 miles over rough and steep terrain, involving around 1,900m of climbing (that's well over a mile straight up into the sky). To put this in context, this is nearly double what I would normally walk in a day, and is broadly equivalent to a flat walk of around 30 miles.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
