Paul is a PhD student in psychology at Durham University. Paul initially developed an interest in endurance, examining his own limits during unsupported walks across Europe and numerous ultramarathons. This has led to published work on the effect of mood on endurance performance. Paul’s current project is exploring the now commonly used term of ‘resilience’ with polar expeditioners to better understand what allows people to not only survive, but importantly flourish.
Paul is also a passionate youth worker and the founder of BCT Aspire CIC where he shares his love of the outdoors with local children.
