Heather Pope, 40, lives in Horsham, West Sussex, with her boyfriend of eight years and daughter Hayley, nine, from a previous relationship. She is web co-ordinator of Mountain Biking shop freeborn.co.uk. She is a size ten. Heather says:
"I’m lucky I’ve never had a problem with cellulite, but my bum was getting saggy and it was a slog getting back in shape. I joined a gym to stay a toned size ten, but I found it boring and wanted to find a more fun way to exercise. When I met my partner, who owns a chain of mountain bike shops, I decided to take up the sport too. Now I cycle three times a week outdoors, for at least an hour each time."
