Story
I have managed to qualify to represent Great Britain in Australia , in September , at the World Triathlon Championships . A life long dream ♥️ This has to be all self funded from race entry , kit, flights , accommodation, transfers etc. Unfortunately, i have only been self employed , running my own PT business for 2 years and never in my wildest dreams , did I think , as I stood on the start line at the Eton Dorney qualifying race , that I would be good enough . But I am and I really don't want to miss an opportunity of a lifetime.
I have some savings to help me get someway there but not quite enough ...😒
So , if you are reading this, and have a spare fiver and you don't need it , you could , if you fancied , help fund my dream . Or if you are an organisation and want to help , in return of having your logo on my kit , feel free to get in contact .
You can read My blog for more information.
Any additional funds raised will be donated to the Mental Health Charity, Mind.
