The month of may

Here we are again… the month of May! Every year, May means more and more to me. I’ve always called it the M’s month — May, Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month, Mother’s Day, and my Mom. This year marks over 20 years since my incredible mom was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. To honour her strength and raise awareness, I’m taking part in the May 50K — running and walking 50km throughout the month to raise $500 for MS research and support. For many, 50km sounds doable. But for someone living with MS, simply getting up and walking each day can be a massive challenge. So every day this May, I’ll be reminding myself how grateful I am to move. In the words of Angela Daly: “If I can wake up, open my eyes and see, and get up in the morning — it’s another day I’m grateful to move.” Move with me this May as I walk for my mom — the most inspiring woman I know — and for everyone affected by MS.
