Well done to Anna and Hayley (photo right) on completing the Race For Life 10k on Sunday 17 October - a great achievement by both ladies. Neither of them ever considered themselves to be runners! Both Hayley and Anna attend our Gym on a regular basis and they both would agree that nothing is impossible when it comes to setting a fitness goal and achieving it! If you would like to improve your overall fitness and exercise in a friendly community gym, where you can feel relaxed and not intimidated, why not give us a try? All details are on this website. |
