Felix: Aged 19. "The last intense physical activity I did was when my friend challenged me to do 150 push-ups, sit ups and squats. I did it....but it took me almost an hour."

Matthew: Aged 52. "I've spent 30 years in office jobs and enjoy good food and wine. I do a bit of running and gym and the occasional triathlon so curious to know what the Swiss mean when they describe the TMR as "Strenuous""
