YOUR MEGA CHALLENGE, YOUR WAY
Take on a 12 or 24 hour feat of endurance in the 2023 My Mega Challenge for MS, and make a life-changing impact for people living with MS.
Choose any sport or recreational activity you want, and help people living with MS immediately get the support they need to live well, while the search for a cure continues. From running, to knitting, to streaming, the choice is YOURS!
There are over 33,300 people living with multiple sclerosis (MS) in Australia and everyone’s experience is unique. Living with MS is a complex and unpredictable condition with varied symptoms that range from mild to severe. They may flare up now and then, or last for long periods of time.
When taking your My Mega Challenge for MS, you might feel pain, muscle spasms and fatigue – common symptoms that people living with MS battle with daily. While these feelings might not be EXACTLY what someone living with MS experiences, you will come out of the challenge with a better understanding of what MS symptoms are like.

Since being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1998, 3-time Paralympic Gold Medallist and 9-time Para-Cycling World Champion, Carol Cooke AM PLY has dedicated her working life to raising awareness and funds for MS.
In 2001, Carol founded the MS Mega Challenge program with a 24 Hour Mega Swim at the Fitzroy Pool in Victoria. The program has since expanded to over a dozen events across the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales, Tasmania and Victoria.
Nothing is impossible if we dare to face our fears and believe in ourselves. The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do.

The events raise money for the MS Go for Gold Scholarship program - scholarships which enable people living with multiple sclerosis to follow a dream - and also fund the Plus Financial Assistance Program and services to directly benefit people living with multiple sclerosis.
MS GO FOR GOLD
MS Go For Gold Scholarships are funded by the generous fundraisers and support of the MS Mega Challenge and offer people living with multiple sclerosis one-off grants to follow a personal dream.
GET REWARDED
Whilst the greatest reward for fundraising is knowing that you are making a difference in the lives of people living with MS, we would like to say thank you by giving you a little something extra!
