Thanks to each and everyone of you for your fantastic support and commitment to Peterhead Jogscotland. Without all your dedication there no way we would have been voted Aberdeenshire Sport Council Team of The Year for 2009. I hope you all feel part of this success we could not do it without all encouragement and you turn out week in week out whatever the weather maybe. We are Peterhead Jogscotland simply the best in Aberdeenshire!!!

Everyone did great, however the star of show was Ellie Robertson who finished second in her age group. Well done Ellie your a real star. Thanks also goes Graham for driving us up, Graham works with Stagecoach, and is also a member of Peterhead Jogscotland. Graham had even time to take part in the 10k brillant!!

Remember if you are off on Holiday be sure send me your photographs with Peterhead Jogscotland T Shirt on, you never know you might win a prize at our AGM in May.
Great news fae the broch on 20th April there is a new jogscotland starting. We have been giving Gillian and her team to some help to get it started, and we will work closely together in the future with them, as we believe its great to have another Jogscotland close by. On the 13th April they are having an Open Night at James Ramsey Pavilion 6.30-8.30pm, if have any friends who would like register be sure to tell to go along that night.
What a great night we had at our 4th Health Fair, the highlight of the night was when we had the honour of making Bill Bradford our first Honorary Member. Bill has been a real inspiration to me and many our of town. Remarkably Bill is 80 years old but thinks nothing about going for a jog or a game a golf, and though he's 80 years young he would still put many of us to shame with his enthusiasm, and get up and go.
Often people say i am to old to take up jogging, and often they are just in their 30s/ 40s or 50s. We say you're never to old to give it ago. With our jogscotland beginners walk/jog programme smalls step at a time, can lead to big strides/improvements in your health and fitness in the future by getting more active, as many of our group has proved. At Peterhead Jogscotland and Jogscotland's through the country we wont be asking you to do more than you are capable off. The next time someone tells you i am to old to jog tell them about Bill our/Peterhead Jogscotland's Honorary Member!!!
At our Health Fair at Living Water Church Peterhead as well as making Bill our first Honorary Member we had -Gait Analysis courtesy of RUN4IT, Massages, Reflexology, Sport Bra Fitting, Health Eating Advice, Sport Injury Prevention Advice and a Free Prize Draw for all attending, well done Joanna Sellen who won the Garmin 205 watch.
