Hi, my name is Mark. From an early age sport played an important role in my life. I played most sports when I was younger, with a particular interest in football. My other passion in life is psychology. I achieved my degree in psychology from Cardiff University in 2009 and went on to teach psychology in secondary school/sixth form for 13 years. I have just completed my masters in sport psychology and am looking forward to combining my two passions in the future. I continue to be involved in sport myself, nowadays this is mainly through long distance running. I am passionate about sport and how sport can help young people in all areas of their lives.
