Pilates with Suzie

Many of our members have been coming to me and saying how much they have enjoyed, are feeling the benefits of the Pilates class we have organised with Suzie Crane in the Rescue Hall on a Friday night since October. As a result we going to trial for a period of a month (to gauge the response) Pilates on a Wednesday night from the 20th April at the Football Club after our normal jogging session. It will start at 7.30 to about 8.30pm, as a result we will be starting all our groups at 6.30pm prompt, so we can get some lite refreshments before the Pilates start. If you havent tried Pilates before (i never had) it really helps to build up Core strength and a result your stamina, and helps prevent injury etc when running. I would highly recommend you give it ago, as over a period of time i know you will feel the benefits as i have!! The session of a Friday night will stop over the summer months to give you an opportunity to go out with the club for a leisurely jog under the instructions of Marshall Birnie one of leaders. To encourage you to give it ago the session on the 20th April will only cost £1, so its a Jog and Pilates for a couple of quid what a bargain!! ha ha

Sandra only joined us last August as her enthusiasm for Jogscotland and jogging is really inspiring. Only a few weeks ago she turned for Sunday afternoon leisurely jog and ended up doing a 12k nae real when think she never jogged before August last year its just amazing!!
