Meet Emily Paton aka Emily Paton
Hapi Sponsored Athlete | Ultra Runner | All-Round Incredible Human
We are incredibly proud to have young ultra runner Emily Paton as part of the Hapi family.
Emily is no ordinary athlete. From completing an astonishing 5 ultras in 5 days, to taking 1st place in Race the Sun, she continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible, taking on extraordinary challenges with determination, courage and a huge smile.
Her achievements haven’t gone unnoticed either, with Emily being shortlisted for Child of the Year at the Pride of Jersey Awards 2026.
And in 2027, amongst her many adventures and challenges, Emily will be taking on Hapi On The Hill, and we can’t wait to see her on the hill in May 2027.
But here’s what makes Emily really special to us.
As impressive as her sporting achievements are, it’s the person that matters most.
Emily is a genuinely lovely, kind and thoughtful human being. And here at Hapi, we believe who you are is far more important than what you achieve.
In a world where we hear far too much about cruelty, negativity and people bringing others down, we want to shine a light on the opposite. On kindness, generosity, positivity and people who make the world a little better simply by being themselves.
We don’t just want to celebrate great athletes. We want to celebrate great human beings.
Emily is both, and we couldn’t be happier to have her representing Hapi.
Keep being you, Emily.
Welcome to the Hapi family. 🧡
