    MS touches more people in our communities than realized. Every hour in the United States, someone is newly diagnosed with MS, an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system.

    MS touches more people in our communities than realized. Every hour in the United States, someone is newly diagnosed with MS, an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system. The progress, severity and specific symptoms of MS in any one person cannot yet be predicted, but advances in research and treatment are moving us closer to a world free of MS.

    I've registered for Challenge Walk MS because I want to do something for those who have been diagnosed. My goal is to raise $2500 for this cause. I have been blessed with wonderful friends and family; several of whom happen to live with MS. They have inspired me to help however I can. Today, there is no cure for multiple sclerosis, and with diagnosis occurring most frequently between the ages of 20 and 50, many individuals face a lifetime filled with unpredictability.

    I am honored to participate in this event and I encourage you to join by supporting me. If we do our part we can help create a world free of MS!

    ONE runner, training and running ONE mile at a time, raising ONE dollar at a time. I am that one runner.
