I have avoided running with anyone up until now (mainly because I like talking and I cannot talk and run at the same time) but it might be the motivation I need to keep at it!floydmolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05285914897180786433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4038172044261289599.post-74720745085555715122015-09-03T17:46:38.006+01:002015-09-03T17:46:38.006+01:00Thanks Stefanie.

Just two more runs to get to 5k.

I was diagnosed with MS in 2011 mainly sensory. In 2013 at the age of 40 I decided I really needed to learn to run - I might be running out of time. I did the c25k with a very patient friend. Unfortunately I find fatigue and running don't mix, and I sometimes have to be sensible, but running is now my sanity - or should I say was my sanity as I'm signed up for a 10k race on October 18th to raise money for the MS society eek. Good luck and keep on running.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17252798219539999597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4038172044261289599.post-23245553422519814092015-08-17T09:19:39.979+01:002015-08-17T09:19:39.979+01:00You star :D !!!

Well done to you so far on your achievements. <br /><br />I'm not sure how you feel about it or not, but there may be a completely free 5km run you could try out every Saturday morning at 9 am in your local area. www.parkrun.org.uk You do not compete with anyone but yourself as it is a run not a race. May be worth having a look as everyone is amazingly supportive. :D<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04862797652715900223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4038172044261289599.post-61680113960901310882015-08-17T06:30:03.413+01:002015-08-17T06:30:03.413+01:00Ha ha ha u will get there! #thisgirlcan #thisgirlw...Ha ha ha u will get there! #thisgirlcan #thisgirlwill<br />I was exactly the same as you in april this year (i have ms too and did the c25k).
