SPF's Annual 5K

I have had PLS for 19 years. It's been quite an adjustment over the duration. I became an ambassador in 2011. It was nice to meet other people with similar symptoms and exchange information. I met a number of good people who are living with these diseases. I have also met young warriors who bravely struggle to take a step each day.

In 2019 I joined the SPF Board of Directors. I want to help find a way to cure HSP and PLS in any way I can.

So please join me this August and let's have some fun. I will be doing 5 miles a week on a NuStep machine all through the month of August. I know a 5K is 3.1 miles, but I have always been an overachiever.
