Get your Underwear on for the Moonwalk
24/02/2010
The Moonwalk – a night time charity walk in the name of Breast Cancer Awareness and Research – is taking places in two places this year. The first is in Hyde Park, London on the 15th May and the second is in Inverleith Park, Edinburgh on the 19th June. The event has garnered outstanding reception since its inception and continues to prove popular. The London event this year alone has already raised over £100,000.
Treadmills & Cross Trainers
On top of all of the money and awareness raised, the walks have inspired many to engage in healthy living training programmes, subsequently losing weight and becoming fitter. The fact that the walk is intended to be a power-walked marathon means that it is an excellent opportunity to set a goal and challenge yourself to reach your limits. Connection Fitness can also help you along the way with the wide range of user-friendly Treadmills, Cross Trainers and Exercise Equipment we stock.
Health & Fitness
Our Health & Fitness Guide on the Benefits of Exercise can help you to understand why exercise is good for you and how it actually affects your body. Taking care of yourself and increasing your general health and fitness level will do wonders for your well-being, so it’s good to have something to motivate you and aim for, and what’s more – you can raise money for charity at the same time!
There are plenty of ways to get involved, and if you haven’t managed to sign up for one of the places on the Moonwalk this year, you can always join in as a volunteer, support a friend or sign up for next year’s event. The spirit of the event and its contributors is admirable in the face of such a serious disease. It is attracting more and more attention each year, so start training and step up to the challenge!
