Trisha Goddard, 51, TV presenter

The secret? You get out of life what you put into it.

Trisha's recent battle with breast cancer saw her running (yes, running!) to radiotherapy sessions and refusing to allow herself to have ‘dark moments'. ‘I wasn't my illness,' she explains. ‘I didn't want to become the poster girl for breast cancer. I had weekly psychotherapy, so that was great support, and I took one day at a time.' Her cancer treatments left her menopausal - but she insists her fitness routine helped her through. ‘I was waiting for hell, but the menopause isn't that bad,' she insists. ‘If you're fit, you don't get the extremes of it. You get out of life what you put into it.'
