The effect of heat in sport is a great field of research to get into, as the findings can have a real-world impact on people’s health and performance, particularly considering global warming.
I knew that heat in sport was an emerging topic, but it was the lecturers leading the project that really intrigued me into pursuing this research area.
Through the restrictions of COVID-19, my project was survey-based, but this was a positive change for me as it involved a lot of reading which only made my interest towards the topic even greater.
