Thank you so much for the generous contribution, that was used to help pay for my flights to France, to compete in the European Off-Road Running Championships, where I represented Great Britain for the first time.
I was very lucky to secure my GB vests at the trials, to race in the U20s Uphill Only and Up and Down races in Annecy, at the end of May 2024. With my main discipline being Fell/Mountain Running, I wanted to achieve results I would be proud of. My results were 11th in the ‘Uphill Only’ and 25th in the ‘Up and Down’, so achievements I was happy with, running as a 15-year-old in the U20s. To top the whole experience off, our U20 men’s team achieved a team bronze medal in the ‘Uphill Only’, helping me to leave Annecy with a sense of pride and satisfaction.
This experience and these results wouldn’t haven’t possible without the granted money, allowing me to pay for the flights to the event, so I would like to say a massive ‘thank you’ once again to the John Taylor Foundation for their help.
