Leeds marathon for MND

I am a 27 year old primary school teacher from Wakefield. Running became a passion a couple of years ago which led me to complete Manchester marathon last April. Afterwards I said I’d never do another marathon… a couple of days later I saw the set up of Leeds marathon for MND and knew I had to get involved and complete my second marathon.

MND affects up to 5,000 adults in the UK at any one time. There is a 1 in 300 risk of getting MND across a lifetime. It can affect adults of any age, but is more likely to affect people over 50. MND is life-shortening and there is no cure. Although the disease will progress, symptoms can be managed to help achieve the best possible quality of life.
