I have always been lucky enough to love my work and I throw myself into it. I also try and make full use of every available minute outside of work. Here are some of the things I get up to out of the office:
RUNNING:
I love to get out for a run. As I travel extensively with work a run often proves a good way to get out of the hotel and get my thoughts together. I also compete in the OMM; a two day orienteering event each year with my Dad. I am trying to increase the amount of trail running I do as it is easier on the knees than running on the road!
Kayaking:
I have been a keen kayaker for over 10 years now. My first experience in a boat was white water kayaking and that is still how I get on the water most often. My partner recently introduced me to sea kayaking and that has proven a cracking way to view the coast and get some exercise. Whilst I was at Cardiff University I joined the Canoe Club and I was lucky enough to be voted president in 2007/2008. Cardiff University introduced me to the joys of Canoe Polo and I was a proud member of the University First team.
Football, Skiing, Climbing
I play football once a week with friends (whenever I am not away with work). I also enjoy climbing and skiing when my partner is willing to lead me!
Other
In addition to my various sports I love spending time with family, friends and my partner of seven years, Eira.
