With the current Biggest
Loser taking place and along with the past events there has been a lot of
people improving their lifestyles, losing weight and generally increasing their
fitness levels. This is a chance for
everyone in the community and neighbouring communities to achieve another goal and
have a bit of fun. There is a level
where everyone can take part, from the youngest to the fittest.
In doing so, not only will we
raise some much needed funds for the GAA club but also give much needed funds
to Marie Curie Cancer Care.
Check out the different
events below – all taking place on the same day.
Date: Saturday 9thNovember 2013
