Kelsey Lapthorn
I hated all sport at school and over time became very overweight. Decided I didn't want to be fat and 40 so with a combination of healthy eating and the need to exercise I took up running to help me reach that goal. I started on the Couchto5k, only being able to run for a minute when I first started. I can now run for 2 hours (ish) non stop but I am slow and steady so will never worry Usain Bolt
