Running the Dublin Marathon for MS. Can you help?

On October 25th, just before 9am, I will be lining up on Fitzwilliam Street in Dublin with approximately 10,000 other people getting ready to start the Dublin Marathon. We will all be there for different reasons. Some will be there to push their personal limits, some as part of a series of marathons.  Personally, I’m trying to raise money for the MS Society by pushing myself to run the 26 miles 385 yards. Please make a donation if you can help.

Some facts about Multiple Sclerosis:

  • MS is almost twice as common in women than men
  • Most people are diagnosed between 20 & 40 years old.
  • There are estimated to be 100,000 people in the UK with MS.
  • The symptoms are very wide and vary considerably from person to person
  • It takes £113 per day to pay for an MS Nurse in a local area - this provides support for 350 people in the local area.
