Alice Taylor is an inspiration to her colleagues.  She's incredibly hard working, funny, self-deprecating...and a super fit long distance runner.

She recently competed in the Pembrokeshire Endurancelife marathon...and won!  But not content with that crazy challenge, she decided to take on the legendary Man v Horse race in Llanwrtyd Wells.

Keen to support Alice, SafeLane's CEO Adam Ainsworth sponsored her entry - and the whole company was cheering her on* on Saturday when she took on the challenge.

Describing the event as "tough" (what an understatement), Alice battled against horrendous weather, cramp and a ruckled insole to come home in a time of 3h 19m - as third placed lady.

As you can see:

 the horses finally overtook her - but in 40 years a human has only beaten a horse twice!

Well done again Alice...

*From the comfort of sofas across the country because the weather was too shocking to go out!
