Beyond the Practitioner: 
Ryan played football throughout his childhood and teenage years. At present, Ryan has a preference for running, especially long distances; having competed in a selection of 10km's and half-marathons over the last few years. A personal accomplishment for Ryan was completing his first marathon in Manchester in April 2019. The difficulties associated with long distance endurance running has furthered Ryan's appreciation and understanding of both the psychological and physical demands of endurance sport especially; allowing him to draw upon his own personal experiences when supporting athletes in sport psychology.
