Hi all,

I have just read the excellent eating disorders article. I'm currently researching eating disorders/disordered eating in sport at Loughborough University. I am in the middle of interviewing athletes and coaches who have experienced or are experiencing this in some way.

I am eager to interview more people so if you are an athlete or a coach who has an experience to share it would be great to hear from you. There is so little understood about what coaches or athletes go through.

All of the people I have interviewed so far find it very rewarding to take part in such a project which can help others and also find the process therapeutic. All interviews are entirely confidential and anonymous. I happy to travel to where you are located.

I look forward to hearing from people. Alternatively if people would just like information on Eating disorders in sport I happy to provide this.
