My Progress

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

My Progress

65 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 increase funding for vital MS research worldwide, improve access to effective treatment and support for everyone – no matter where they live.

There are over 2.8 million people living with MS and over 5000 living in South Africa. I need your help to leave MS where it belongs, behind us.

Research and global action are the keys to changing the future of MS, so I’ve accepted The May 50K challenge to change lives.

My Updates

Countdown!

The last week of May 50 k 2025 is upon us. It has been inspiring to see how people from South Africa, as first time participants, and from across the globe have wholeheartedly supported this initiative to raise awareness, improve access and continue research so that MS can be left in our dust and we can live in a world without MS!

The journey has begun

Maybe cheating a bit but I thought I'd get an early start! Some tasks are forming part of the movement in my 50 km walk, e.g. mowing lawn which I did on 24/04 to get things moving but it is only done every 2 weeks (Mediterranean climate - winter rain so still quite dry).

Thank you to my Sponsors

I read your story and thought to myself, I hope I did not add more burdens to an already burdened fellow. Your bravery and positivity in facing MS headon gives me hope. Keep going.
