Support my challenge to leave MS behind!

I’m taking part in The May 50K. I will be taking on 100km throughout May to raise funds for life-changing research into multiple sclerosis and better access to treatments! 

There are over 130,000 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

Final 10KM Left and Extended Fundraising Goal Reached!

Hello everyone! 

First of all, thank you all so much for donating to the cause and helping me double my original fundraising target! 

With that, I am also happy to announce that I am down to the final 10 KM left from my extended goal with 4 days to go! It has been great and I am glad I pushed myself to extend my original target distance, as this truly made me be consistent and motivated. 

I will make my final update when I cross my finish line! Thanks again, we are making positive impact together. 

102 KM in 19 Days! Original Goal Reached

Hello!

I decided to wait until today (Monday the 19th) to write my third update since as of today, I have reached my original distance goal of 100 KM. I have walked 102 KM in 19 days which is honestly way more than I thought I could do in such a short amount of time. 

This week, finding time has been more of a struggle so I did not get the chance to walk outside as much as I wanted to, so I found myself on the treadmill a lot more. 

Regardless, goal reached and with that I believe I will extend it to 150KM for the rest of May. 

Thank you everyone who has already donated! 

Week 2 - 50KM Walked and Goal Reached! Thank you!

Hello! 

Thank you so much for everyone who has donated so far! Thanks to you I have now reahed the original goal I had set and I have covered half of my distance target as well, with 55KM in 10 days! 

This week I did my best to walk more outside, considering the nice weather. For the first time in my life, I chose to get off a few stops early just to walk more and a few times I even did not use public transport at all despite its convenience. I am feeling some pain in one of my ankles though, so I am trying to be careful with it. 

I think I will expand my goal to £200, as the more we raise for this great cause, the better! And if I keep up the current pace, I will also increase my target distance to 150KM. 

I will be back next week with another update! Thanks again everyone for supporting this cause!

First Week of May

Hello! 

So I just wanted to give an update since the first (short) week of May is now complete and I have walked 23KM so far with a mix of outside walks and walking on my home treadmill. 

It went well except one hiccup today when after about 52 min of walking on the treadmill (5.70KM), the treadmill decided to just turn itself off all of a sudden and completely reset the progress. That was quite unfortunate, but I managed to complete the remaining 0.50KM that I was planning to do in order to round up the 23KM. 

Here are the screenshots and pictures from the week! I really wish I could upload videos. And hopefully next week goes smoother.
