The sign on Michelle Schuller’s back said it all: “I’m walking for myself and my brother,” it read. Both of them have multiple sclerosis.

Schuller, 43, of Southington, was one of about 300 people who turned out for the 2012 Walk MS at Eastwood Field despite Saturday morning’s rainfall and colder temperatures.

“We’re here, rain or shine,” said Morgan Goldthwaite, logistics coordinator for the Ohio Buckeye Chapter of the National MS Society. Goldthwaite said the average walker raises $225, and the money is allocated to local programs and MS research projects. The walk has been conducted annually for 25 years.
