My Progress

I'm walking 50 kms this May to leave MS behind

My Progress

50 KMS

My target

50 KMS

Support my challenge to leave MS behind!

I’m taking part in The May 50K. I will be taking on 50km throughout May and leaving my limits behind to raise funds for life-changing research into multiple sclerosis and better access to treatments! 

There are over 150,000 people in the UK living with MS and I need your help to leave MS where it belongs, behind us.

You can now support this work in the UK and around the World because The May 50K supports the MS Society UK and the MS International Federation. I’ve accepted the challenge to change lives.

Please make a donation to support my challenge.

Thank you so much!

My Updates

Day 29 Burry Port Harbour

Completed the final 2km around the harbour in the sunshine, accompanied by my husband and sister, reaching my goal of 50km. Yay 🥳

Day 27 Troserch Woods Llanelli

A woodland walk in the shade. It was the hardest 2km for me, but Winnie was living her best life in the shade, mud and sticks to chew. 😊

Day 26. Extremely Hot 🥵

Just 2 x 1km walks in the heat today. One down the town and home again, and then along the shore at Penclawdd early evening. 

Day 25 Burry Port

It was so hot today, but I managed clocking up 1km walking to the water line and back. The tide was going out at 6pm, so it felt a bit like we were chasing it. Lovely family picnic though 😊.

Day 23 WWT Llanelli

Walked 2km around the Wetlands Centre today. There were ducklings and goslings everywhere.

Day 21 From Home to Antioch!

I walked to the Lifeshare Foodbank this morning , instead of going by car.  Only 1 little wiggle off piste from Google maps ! 

Day 18 Winchester

Yesterday, before heading home to Llanelli, we had a short 1km walk around Winchester city centre. We couldn’t stop long enough to discover what the 2 rescue trucks were doing outside the cathedral.

Day 17 Meon Valley Trail

Today I amazed myself by walking 4km in one go amid the birdsong along the Meon Valley Trail. I was accompanied by my husband, Ian, and my youngest daughter and husband,Chloe and Ben, plus their cocker spaniel, Phoebe. I don’t know who is more pooped, me or Phoebe!

Day 11 The River Lleidi into Llanelli

Today my husband took me up to and alongside the River Lleidi in the town centre. We started at our house and came back through the shopping centre to home, picking up my prescription en route. I’m getting to know my town while completing this challenge! 

Day 8

I walked up the hill to have a cuppa with my sister this afternoon, and then walked home again. It’s 2.7km there and back in total. As you can only log whole kms, I’ll carry the 0.7 over to tomorrow’s walk. 

Day 7 Millenium Costal Park, St Elli’s Bay

At last I managed to get back to the coast and walk along the beach in Llanelli. On a beautiful sunny evening, I feel blessed to be able to complete another 2km in May. 

Day 4 of Walking 50k in May

After a rainy day with my grandsons, who also “slept” over, it was just a casual 1km around the block this evening. 

2nd May Pwll

I walked 2km along the Millennium Coastal Path from Pwll and back. The scenery was beautiful and the birds were full of song. Lush!
