Stephen Wild	Cheshire GBR	Proud to be on board with the rest of the W.I.S.E. team. Target this year is 5M metres, but those cold winter mornings don't help with the motivation!!

Keith Thomas	West Linton  SCOTLAND GBR	Proud to say that I am now at least as fit as I have ever been, largely due to the Concept 2.
