"I get up early and do some yoga before heading off on the bike for a 20km spin four or five times a week. Then it's off to collect the grandchildren from school and take care of them until their parents come home from work

"I do the homework and might even play a bit of soccer with them. The children keep me young. I hate being around complainers."

The cold and wet weather doesn't stop Annette from getting out and about and she revealed a handy tip to keep the circulation moving.

"If it's cold, I'll heat two potatoes in the microwave and pop them in my gloves to keep my fingers warm before heading off.

"I think the secret is to keep moving and not to give up. I'm a very strong minded person and I won't let anything beat me - so bring on the next challenge," she chuckled.
