“Since I started the journey in 2013 with the Masters Games it’s been one of the most marvellous experiences of my life. Apart from getting married and having children. It’s fantastic!”

The feeling an the atmosphere is just amazing. I’ ve never, even at the World Champs that I go to oversees, you just don’t get this bigger crowd, It’s really spectacular, it’s great.

“It’s so incredible to see what people are capable of way beyond their younger years into later on in life. You see it here in these international competitions as well; who are so fast, they are not just participating, they’re absolutely smashing it. Across so many different sports. People are incredible with what they’re achieving.”
