Inspirational story: Girl with multiple sclerosis becomes running star.

Kayla Montgomery is one of the top young distance runners in the U.S. She has been battling with multiple sclerosis (MS) since high school and it doesn't make racing easy at all.

The multiple sclerosis (MS) affects nerves in the brain and spinal cord, causing a wide range of symptoms including problems with muscle movement, balance and vision. Each nerve fiber in the brain and spinal cord is surrounded by a layer of protein called myelin, which protects the nerve and helps electrical signals from the brain travel to the rest of the body. In MS, the myelin becomes damaged. 

MS is a disease in which disrupted nerve signals in her body cause her to experience complete numbness in her legs when she runs. Only when she stops to rest and her body temperature returns to normal do her MS symptoms subside. So, every time this brave and persistent girl crosses the finish line after running a race, she endures several minutes of extreme distress as she struggles to regain feeling in both her legs.
