Another 3k in the bag today, this walk felt the easiest out of all my malls so far 😊

After work walk, didn’t want to go and would have been happy to just sit on the sofa but went and actually enjoyed it, today’s companion was hubby and the boys x

Just me and the boys today

Hardest one yet 😢

I’m not going to lie — today has been the hardest walk so far. Every step has hurt, and I don’t think I truly understood just how far 50k really is until now.

But I’m still going, because this means so much. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who has donated to MS Society — your kindness and support are what’s getting me through this 🙏

Work walk

Second big walk for me, 11k in the bag now 😊

I’ve now done two big walks, and honestly, that means more to me than I can explain. It might not seem like much to anyone else, but for me it’s a big step. I’m slowly chipping away at the 50k I started, and even though it still feels like a long road, I can see that I’m getting there.

Some days are harder than others, but I’m trying, and I’m not giving up. I’ve just got to keep going — one step at a time.

Reason why

This year, I’m taking part in the MS Society May 50K challenge – something that means more to me than just a fitness goal.

Multiple sclerosis has affected so many people, including my dad, my aunt, and myself. It’s a condition that isn’t always visible. From the outside, it might look like I’m absolutely fine, but the reality is very different. Living with constant pain, fatigue, and the uncertainty of how I’ll feel from one day to the next really takes its toll.

That’s why this challenge matters so much. More research is desperately needed to better understand MS, improve treatments, and one day find a cure.

Because of my own condition, this won’t be easy. I’ll be completing my 50K over two months – April and May – taking it one step at a time and pushing through the difficult days as best as I can.

If you’re able to support me, I would be so grateful. Any donation, no matter how small, can make a real difference in the fight against MS.

Thank you so much for your support 💛
