“My physical activity journey has changed over the years having once been a fiercely competitive footballer in my younger days where I relished the camaraderie that came from being part of a winning team. If I play football now it is the shorter version of the game which I play purely for the social and fun aspects of the game. 
 
Physical activity for me these days is mainly for the physical and mental health benefits which I get through the gym or riding the bike trails with my son.”
