My Progress
I'm moving 50 kms this month to leave MS behind
My Progress
16 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.
Thank you to my Sponsors

Hi Kat, I just wanted to take a moment to say how much I admire you. The last time I saw you at SA Senior Nationals in April 2025, just six weeks into chemo and still showing up on the blocks—was nothing short of inspiring. I’ll never forget our conversation on the pool deck during the medal break. Even while facing your own battle, your concern was for someone else close to me. That moment truly touched me and spoke volumes about your incredible heart. Your will to live, your strength, and your selfless spirit leave a deep impression on everyone lucky enough to know you. I’m cheering you on every stroke of the way in your May 50K Challenge. You’ve already achieved so much just by being you. With admiration and support, Liezel van Rooyen
