Please help me travel to Poland to represent New Zealand in the 800m at the IAAF World Junior Athletics Championships.

Wellington

Hi everyone, my name is Alison and I am a competitive 800m/1500m runner. I have qualified and been selected for the New Zealand team that will travel to Bydgoszcz, Poland for the International Amateur Athletic Federation World Under 20 Athletics Championships. This will be my first major international event and is a really exciting opportunity for me to represent New Zealand and show what athletes from the Wairarapa are capable of on a world stage. However, this opportunity comes at great financial cost to myself and my family, which is why I am reaching out to you. Please help me realise my dream of making the World Junior 800m final by donating. Any support is greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Winter Series 800m Race this weekend  6 June 2016

Hey guys, just wanted to give those who are interested an update on my build up for Poland... I can assure with that I have been working hard of late, with intense track sessions punctuated with endurance runs and gym sessions in the garage. This weekend will be key in our campaign as it will give us a strong indication of where I'm at and how 'on track' I am leading up to the Championships. I am racing in the 800m in a Winter Series here in Masterton. With the help of one of the boys, I am aiming to crack that 2:08.00 - here's hoping anyway!
