Well done and good luck. I hope you draw lots of attention to your event and of course 'our' horrible disease. Incidentally, I do not hope you will 'spread the disease' itself. But knowledge of and about - yes, definitely.

I am in NL, and last September one fairly young woman patient (in her 30s I think) did a long distance walk to draw attention. She managed to generate quite a lot of publicity. I am sure your event will too. Spread the word...!

I hope lots of people join your walk. If I lived in Spain I’d join you. The more publicity we can get for RLS, the better. Good luck.
