Watch Emma Booth's remarkable journey to the 2016 Rio Paralympics | ||
Watch para-equestrian Emma Booth's journey of resilience and determination in this remarkable video. Emma's incredible story of getting back in the saddle to a successful Olympic campaign in just three years is one that has inspired many, and with just under 100 days until the 2016 Paralympics, Emma is in the final stages of her journey to represent Australia in Rio.
Team Booth and Emma's coach, Lone Jorgensen, accomodated eager fans and supporters over the weekend at Jorgensen's property on the Mornington Peninsula. Visitors were treated to a spectacular performance by Emma and Zidane - just a taste of what is to come in their international career.
The event was held as a fundraiser ahead of the monumental journey Emma and her team have ahead of them in the logistical effort it takes to bring both horse and rider to the Olympic Games. The event drew local businesses and national television companies alike, amongst an unsurprisingly huge turnout of fans of all ages, to watch the pair and donate to Ride with No Limits.
