Story
I'm running the 2026 London Marathon in support of the MS International Federation.
I run in honor of:
-My cousin Sarah: a US Paralympic silver medalist in wheelchair rugby who lives with MS and continues to defy every limitation the disease tries to impose; she inspires me every day!
-My friend Meghan: she hired me for my first job at the National MS Society and has become a dear friend; her encouragement and support has been instrumental to me professionally and personally.
-The countless individuals I've met who are living with MS and inspire me every day.
London will be my fifth World Major Marathon, bringing me one step closer to my goal of earning all six stars. But this journey is about more than medals—it's about raising awareness, driving research, and standing in solidarity with the global MS community. Every mile I run is for Sarah, Meghan, and everyone whose lives have been touched by MS whose strength, resilience, and refusal to let MS define them inspire me every single day. Thank you for supporting this cause and helping us move closer to a world free of MS.
By donating, you will enable MSIF to collaborate with its members across the world to improve the quality of life of people affected by multiple sclerosis. There are over 2.8 million people around the world living with MS, and in every country, life is different. Together, with our members, we have committed to increase funding for vital MS research worldwide, improve access to effective MS treatment, and support everyone with MS - no matter where they live.
In Honor Of (please share names with me and I can add them to my list!):
Sarah Adam
Meghan Gaeger
