I Ran FROM LONDON TO BARCELONA, why? BECAUSE I STILL CAN.

On 4th July 2023, the World Parkinson’s Congress opened in Barcelona.

I arrived in Barcelona for this conference just before it started on the 30 June, my means of getting there? Running.

I ran from London to Portsmouth, took the ferry across to Caen in Northern France, ran through France and over the Pyrenees into Northern Spain where I arrived in Barcelona for the opening of The World Parkinson’s Congress.

Why? Because I still can.

I have ru to raise money and awareness for Cure Parkinson’s and Parkinson’s UK, and did I mention, I’m 65 and I have Parkinson’s.
