Stuart is a relatively new member of the Poly but has wasted no time contributing to the cause through coaching and his work on the club's website. Having joined at the start of the pandemic, Stuart might not be a familiar face to many, given how we're only just getting back into the swing of things. Stuart's story into running and coaching stems from a lifetime of brain related conditions and surgeries, including various cysts and tumours, as well as the horror of meningitis. A chance glimpse of the New York Marathon on TV from his hospital bed as youngster planted an ambition that was 20 years in the realising, with a lot to contend with in between. His message is one of self determination and resilience, as well some interesting dietary advice when he needed to bulk up from major weight loss when he was sick as a child... Thanks Stuart (and blimey, well done!)
