On April 26th 2015, Maria Williams will be the first New Zealand blind woman to compete in the Para-athletics World Marathon Champs as part of the London Marathon.
Her guide and coach, two times World Mountain Running Champion and a former New Zealand Sports Woman of the year Melissa Moon will be there to help achieve this inspirational goal with Maria who lost her sight 13 years ago.
All funds raised will help them get to the start line and enable Maria to create history, do New Zealand Proud and inspire other unsighted New Zealanders to take on similar challenges in their lives.
