Why I'm walking to World Arthritis Day

I am raising money for Versus Arthritis by taking on Walk to World Arthritis Day.

This is my own personal challenge to support the lives of those of us living with arthritis in the UK. Versus Arthritis won’t rest until everyone with arthritis has access to the treatments and support they need to live the life they choose, with real hope of a cure in the future. 

I continue to work hard on my fitness and wellbeing to be the best version of me, setting personal goals and accepting the small wins alongside the bigger achievements. Over the past 8 months or so I have found myself running anything up to 12km/2hrs on a really good day after initially wishing to run a full 5k.  20 years ago (or even 10 yrs ago) I could never have comprehended that I would one day be able to say I was a runner, let alone actually enjoy being one and getting really excited over buying my first pair (and second pair) of Brooks 😂

None of this would have been possible without the major advances in medical research and treatment, unfortunately there is still a long way to go as not everyone responds well to the current treatment pathways.....I have been one of the luckier ones! 

Your donations will fund world class research, high quality services and campaigns that matter most to people with arthritis.
