    ABOUT Dani Taylor

    I’m fundraising to attend the HYROX World Championships in Chicago. I won multiple races here in Australia, which qualified me for the World Championships. Only 0.5% of athletes are successful in qualifying, and I’m pinching myself that I’m one of those fortunate athletes who can compete against the top athletes from around the world.


    However, I’m realising that Chicago is incredibly expensive, and I need a miracle to attend this race. I’m a solo mum working and training hard, but the cost of living makes these expenses incredibly challenging to overcome.


    I’ve always loved running and competed at a state level in school. I became a mum quite young and gave up on my running dreams to be a mum and support my family, so to think all these years later, here I am with the opportunity to achieve a dream that I thought was never going to be attainable is pretty amazing!


    At the moment, I’m working overtime at work to try and afford this trip, but that’s coming at the cost of having less time to train, at a time when fine tuning my training is super important.

    The closer I’m getting the more I’m feeling that I really need to ask for some help as I cannot do this alone.


    I stumbled across Australian Sports Funding on Instagram, as I think my algorithm was picking up that I needed help. I’m only 4 weeks out, and any support would be greatly appreciated. The cost of this trip is upwards of $10,000.

    I am truely appreciative of any support I can be granted and I am so grateful to have the opportunity to represent Australia in a sport I absolutely love.


    Thank you if you got this far through a bit about me!
