Personal

I live near Reading in the South of England. I have two children, who occupy most of my free time, and aim to live an active lifestyle.

I travel for running events and hiking and work out several times a week. My first organized running was the Greenland Polar Circle Half-Marathon and Marathon (on consecutive days), after which I have enjoyed a number of international trips for runs - I'm not quick, but I'm good at not stopping.

I read extensively; I'm interested in the practical application of data (books by the likes of Nate Silver, Pedro Domingos, and David Spiegelhalter), but I'm also very likely to be rereading a Discworld novel.

I enjoy music and podcasts (I listen to far more shows about film and football than I actually watch of either).
