MEET OUR INCREDIBLE MOTIVATORS
Each year we gather a group of individuals living with MS to share their stories and motivate all The May 50K participants to get active, tick off those KMs, and of course remind us why fundraising is so vital.
We are so thankful to this group for sharing with us and motivating us all to keep moving!
ANNE-MAREE
Since her first year starting The May 50K in 2023, Anne-Maree has raised over $45,000 for MS Australia in total. She truly is a fundraising superstar!
“Good on you. Keep motivated. As a person living with MS, you have my absolute and full support, and I congratulate you all.”
BETH
Beth was initially told she wouldn't ever be able to run more than 5kms due to her MS, now Beth has completed 5kms, 10kms, and even half marathons!
“It’s important for me to take part in The May 50K because I believe that movement is one of the most important things I can do for my MS.”
MARIANNE
MS Australia Advocacy Award winner for 2024! Marianne inspires and supports other people living with MS by facilitating MS Plus Peer Support groups and taking part in The May 50K.
“It doesn’t matter whether you do 50k or 100k, every one of you is an MS champion – THANK YOU!”
Danni and Scott
Scott and Danni are superstar motivators of team Lardee Da! An excpetional, inspirational team all across Australia that Danni brings together each May in support of her husband, Scott who has PPMS.
“We are grateful to people giving us their time, support and most of all cash! I always say, let's help find a cure together!”
Chris and Charlene
After Chris's wife, Charlene was diagnosed with MS in 2019, Chris was driven towards raising funds and awareness for MS research. Back for his 6th year, Chris is ready to leave his limits behind in 2025!
“We are NOT giving in to this silent disease. I'm here to fight for my wife and our family... MS doesn't belong here.”
