I'm walking 100km this May to leave MS behind

Support my challenge to leave MS behind!

I’m taking part in The May 50K challenge this May to raise funds for life-changing research into multiple sclerosis!

MS strikes young people in the prime of their lives. The average age of diagnosis is only 30 years old, and there is no known cure.

Please make a donation and support my challenge to leave MS where it belongs, behind us.

Your donation will support research into the prevention, treatment and finding a cure for multiple sclerosis to change lives.

Thank you!

MY IMPACT TO LEAVE MS BEHIND OVER 2 YEARS

My Updates

Target Is Too High This Year

After a death in my family, I'm afraid this fundraising effort is not going to go as well as I'd hoped it was going to. 

But once all of the things that need to be done are finished, I hope to be able to do this challenge again next year, making it my third May50k challenge for 2026.

In the meantime, I'll keep going with the walking, and at least get close to my target of 100km. I'm currently on over 70km, with nesrly 4km to add to the total from yhe walking done today. 

I wish I could have had one coffee with my Mum at the Mallala Cafe, but it was too late, Mum is gone now.

Seeing Lovely Trees

I love the range of tall Eucalytus trees along our road, where I do most of my walking! 
We live in the Adelaide Plains council area, on a bit of land, and with farms all around the township. I'm glad there are trees along the road, and also that one of the farmers close by has left a small bit of 'bushland'. The photo I took today shows a part of that bushland. 

Walking when there's shade from trees is awesome, although the tree in the photo would only through me shade if it was in the morning, rather than the afternoon like today.

I've logged my first official kilometres for May!

Even though the kilometres walked and logged don't show up here, I certainly walked them, and keyed in the details, and I'll keep on walking, and recording how far I walked every day in May!

It feels good to be getting fitter and fitter, and raising the funds to help with research for Multiple Sclerosis feels great, will they find a cure? I hope so, that's why I'm doing The  May 50k walk!
