Question: What interested you in getting into sport and how the body works when doing sport, what inspired you?

I have always enjoyed taking part in sport, and this combined with my interest in science led me to really enjoy finding out how the body works when we do exercise. Because success in sport is dependent on so many factors (some physiological, some psychological, some environmental etc.) it is a really interesting challenge working to understand how to improve performance in sport using your expertise.
