Abstract
Dr Mark Christie, PhD, Senior Lecturer in Sport Development, University of Cumbria, UK discussed green exercise research and personal inspirations on this Canadian radio podcast. Mark was interviewed on the podcast "Healing Humans, Healing the Planet" for Canadian radio station CFMU. He discussed his green exercise research in therapeutic horticulture, gardening, and conservation activity, conducted for his PhD in Environmental Psychology. His PhD by publication included six peer-reviewed papers. Mark also led a £75k funded project investigating therapeutic horticulture and agriculture for young people excluded from education. Mark shared how his childhood experiences with outdoor sports, his role as a sports development officer, and his passions for fell running, hiking, gardening, cycling, and open water swimming inspired his research on green exercise and its benefits. He has been invited back to discuss his recent open water swimming research, which has resulted in seven publications since 2023, in collaboration with colleague Dr David Elliott.
