Hey everyone!
I have recently been selected to represent Canada at the World University Cross Country Championships in Switzerland! This is a tremendous honour and I can't explain how excited I am to wear the red and white again. It is always a special feeling running for Canada.
Unfortunately this team has no funding and the cost of the trip lies solely on the athlete. Apparently it also isn't cheap to fly to Switzerland, stay there for a week and fly back as the trip cost roughly 3000$. I have been very fortunate to receive some funding from the University of Guelph but I still have a majority of the cost on myself.
As a full time University student and full time varsity athlete it's pretty hard to find time for any sort of job. So i'm asking for any size of donation no matter what the size.
It is all truly appreciated!
