With a lifelong passion for cycling and a background in road racing, Mark first approached TORQ several years ago for some training and nutritional advice.

His intention was to switch to long distance time trialling, so we have worked closely with Mark to develop a feeding strategy to suit these particular requirements.

Progression has been good and 2017 was a great year for Mark, with several wins and personal bests at 50 miles – 1h38m, 100 miles – 3h21m and 12 hour – 312miles, which was good enough for an eventual 4th place in the prestigious British Best All-Rounder competition. In addition to racing, Mark supports local road safety groups, partitioning for improved cycling infrastructure in the Peak District area.
