Mike's Euro Maras for M.E.

Looking forward to attending @investinmeresearch.bsky.social ME Conference in Cambridge on May 29th.

Excited to hear about all of the latest scientific research towards finding treatments.

Will be rattling the tin there to bring in some more funds for M.E

10,000 miles A journey that started in Jan 2015!   I’ve finally reached the milestone of 10,000 miles run for Invest In ME Research. Yes, that’s right, I...

Just ran my 10,000th mile for @investinmeresearch.bsky.social

Quick blog about what I've learnt and what's next.

SKOPJE, MACEDONIA Training for marathon 38 in Skopje was a little tough with injury and illness but after missing my flight connection from Turkey to Macedonia, I was very pleased to get to the start line.  The day...

The initial DNA results from DecodeME are coming this week! We will release them on our website on Wednesday 6th August at 7pm (approx).

We're letting you know the timing in advance so you can pace beforehand.

Thank you to our participants & supporters.

2 months until Skopje Marathon 🇲🇰

I'm very undercooked. August and September are big months, hope my stupid legs will hold out!

If you'd like to sponsor me ad edge closer to a cure for M.E

It’s #MEawarenesshour. I’m tweeting in the hope that if more people are aware of M.E. and the way it devastates lives, more effort and funding will be allocated to investigating and searching for answers. We need an agreed, objective diagnostic test for detailed clinical trials.

Had a 2-3 week break and now back in training.

Next one for me is Skopje Marathon, North Macedonia 🇲🇰

Marathon 38, country 34 and I'm likely to reach 10,000 miles.

It looks like a beautiful country. If anybody knows of anyone with M.E there please let me know, I'd love to meet/interview them.

Belfast, N.Ireland Before European country no.33, I was able to interview 2 people with M.E; Richard and Aileen who told me all about their lives with M.E in Northern Ireland .  After landing in Belfast I was met for...

Race report for Belfast Marathon (European country 33)

£1300 raised for @investinmeresearch.bsky.social

Delighted to complete Belfast Marathon and support people with ME in Northern Ireland

£1051 raised so far for this race takes my total to £51.7k for @investinmeresearch.bsky.social

Race report coming soon. Mara 38 (Euro country 34) will be N.Macedonia, Oct 5

Great day exploring Belfast. Such an interesting place with super-friendly people. Looking forward to running for people with ME in Northern Ireland tomorrow.

Flying out to Northern Ireland today for Belfast Marathon. Looking forward to meeting Joan from the ME association there for dinner

Country 33, £51,189 raised so far @investinmeresearch.bsky.social

Weather looks good for the run, just hope my knee holds up.

Delighted that there's now a more accurate figure of people with ME in the UK (404,000) for the media to use.

Obviously bittersweet, as that is still a huge number of people in daily pain, ignored and with no treatments to recover.

'Too many people have already suffered disastrous consequences from harmful and outdated advice. Patients in the UK have died of malnutrition as a result of inadequate care and services'

M.E in Northern Ireland

'There's no ME specialist, no ME clinics, no care pathway for severe ME... It is incomprehensible that so many patients are left without anything'

I'll be running for Richard and Aileen at Belfast Marathon on May 4th.

3 years since completing a marathon race in all 27 EU nations for @investinmeresearch.bsky.social

£42k raised at the time.

Gone on to run in another 5 new countries since then, adding £9k.

It was a life changing experience. Am still here representing my ME pals until we get a cure.

Taxing UK Billionaires 1-2% more a year would bring in more than any of this proposed nonsense.

My feeling is that it will be watered down via debate and protests to the point of just sitting as a mild deterrent for people trying to cheat the system.

If the government actually committed proper funding for ME and Long Covid research they wouldn't need to target disabled people.

There'd be hundreds of thousands of people actively in the workforce.

8 years since I ran Barcelona Marathon and met so many amazing people with ME. Hot race but iconic and beautiful. £800 raised.

Up to £51k for @investinmeresearch.bsky.social 🙏

Cheers all.

I've had #ME for 38 years, nothing has changed in that time, no care, treatments or funding for biomedical research
It's an appalling record for everyone who's had a responsibly to implement change for #pwME over decades

Loving reminder that when you read posts from me or anyone w/ #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis:

We're among those #pwME (persons w/ M.E.) who have the strength to post.

People w/ #SevereME mostly exist in dark rooms, unable to move or to tolerate light or sound.

It's a hellish existence.

We need help

Thanks bud 👍

200 miles done, 250 to go until Belfast Marathon (May 4th).

Am creaking but ready to attack the training plan.
