Bennachie Madness

Good luck to Fred, Stephen C, Stewart S, Adam and yours truly. Believe it or not tomorrow afternoon we are taking part in the Bennachie Hill Race (or probably in my case the "Bennachie Crawl"). When Fred said to me early this year that his annual funding raising event this year in aid of the Make A Wish Foundation was to be the Bennachie Hill Race i immediately agreed to do it with him not thinking much about it!!! However today its a different story -looking outside, and after 4 weekends of hill training on Mormond hill (which is about half the height of Bennachie) i think we are MAD!!!! IF we survive full details will appear in the blog in due course. Well done to Fred The Make A Wish Foundation is a fanastic charity see http://www.make-a-wish.org.uk/about/ourpurpose/ each year he raises £100s for it!!! Why not show him your support by bring along another £ on Monday!!

Charity Weight Loss Challenge

Well thats over 5 weeks since we started our Charity Weight Loss Challenge and the results so far have been great. Our group has lost 5stone 5Ibs in total since started which is fanastic, one gentleman who shall remain nameless at this time has lost just over 8Ibs, and lady has lost over 6Ibs which is amazing in only 5 weeks. Remember we not dieting we are trying to eat more healthy and get more active, and to date it seem to be working well. I have lost about 5Ibs so i am really pleased, and i have managed to overcome the temptation of the dreaded sausage sandwich for our works canteen for a few weeks now which i am really proud about!!! How are you getting on why not email me and let me know, or have you any healthy eating recipes you would like to share with us??

I hope you found it useful too!! Ingrid was really impressed how interested everyone was in the healthy eating and she really enjoyed her time in Peterhead. We hope to have her back in Peterhead in the near future to give us more tips on healthy eating.

Jogging Tomorrow (Saturday!!) 27th Sept

Just a very quick note to say that we are jogging tomorrow morning at 10 am from Catto Park, we were going to use the running track, however the fitba pitch in the middle is being used by the schools football so we will probably just do some of our usual routes. Both beginners and intermediates are welcome to come along, beginners will be doing the same as we did on Monday but a different route. Brillant night on Wednesday i hope to get the photographs on tonight!! Hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!!
