Mark Payne - His journey of a thousand miles

Mark Payne - His journey of a thousand miles

Mark Payne is the first non-martial artist I've talked with on my podcast. However, that doesn't diminish his message in any way. His message is one that all of us must notice; it's the message of looking after your health. It's also the message that it's never too late to regain your health, to live and perform at a higher level. 

Although Mark has not been a martial artist himself, he has been around martial arts people for many years. He's supported his son in his martial arts passion and continues to do so.

 

I have always found Mark easy to talk to, and he always greets me with a smile; I'm guessing he now has lots to smile about and be grateful for. After listening to his story, I'm sure you'll agree that even though he has never done martial arts before, his challenge has built him a level of indomitable spirit equal to any martial arts practitioner.

I wish Mark all the best for the future. I'm grateful to have him in my PUMA martial arts family. 

I hope you enjoy our chat.
