Marathon des Sables · 19 February 2008

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

Hi,

In March/April I completed the Marathon des Sables, a multi-day event in the Moroccan quarter of The Sahara desert. The distance was 245.3kms (approx 152.5 miles) spread over the course of 7 days, and other than water and a tent, we carried all other supplies. 

I'm raising money for the MS Society. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: the MS Society will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you. Please remember to tick the 'I am a UK taxpayer' bit if asked.

As ever, your support is massively appreciated.

James
