I received the attached from a sport science student at Salford Uni - can I ask anyone who may be able to help to contact Eoin direct by Email, ta.
Hi,
I'm looking for help, I am a sport science student in Salford University and for my final year project am conducting research into the psychology of ultra-marathon running.
The research looks at motivation for competing in such an event, emotions experienced during the race and mental toughness characteristics required to complete a race of this nature, it is quite in-depth and centres around an individual's personal experience and as such does not require large participant numbers. It does, however, involve an interview of approx 90 mins which not all people can accommodate. I have already recruited 4 runners, so probably need just 2 more.
Any assistance would be very much appreciated.
regards,
Eoin Phelan
