Emma Butler, of Emma’s Posh Paws, has set herself the challenge to raise money for Ravenswood Pet Rescue.

The 22 year old is now in training ready for the event in Cheshire in September which involves 20 obstacles and a 20km run.

“I like to challenge myself and am often called in to groom the rescue dogs for Ravenswood so it seemed the perfect opportunity to help them out with fund raising while also pushing myself to do something new,” she said.

She has previously successfully completed the Insane Terrain challenge and Race For Life but this takes it up to a whole new level.

She is currently in training with home workouts which will extend to road running and cycling as the weather improves.

“There’s no target total, just as much as I can raise to help a really worthy cause,” she said.
