She said: ‘The blog has been a bit of a whirlwind; one moment I couldn’t run a metre, the next I was running the most ridiculous obstacle race, jumping off 15ft platforms into freezing cold water, diving into ice baths and being electrocuted.

‘Then to top off the most amazing 18 months, I was having my photo taken with Paula Radcliffe at the Great South Run and being interviewed by journalists. It’s been pretty crazy but so much fun.’
