If you’d like to improve your fitness levels, but are not sure how to get started, then why not take part in the new ‘First Steps to Fitness’ challenge for staff and students?
The challenge, organised by Human Resources, is to take a jog or walk around a kilometre-long route on as many Wednesday lunchtimes as possible, from Freshers’ Week through till the end of May 2010.
Starting at a marked meeting point behind the Antonin Artaud building (the Boiler house), the track follows the west perimeter of the campus and a path through the picturesque Bicentenary Gardens.
But don’t worry if you’re not quite ready for jogging yet; there will be groups for all fitness levels, so you can start by walking and build up to a faster pace as you improve over the weeks.
At the simplest level, the challenge aims to get people away from their desks or their studies and out into the fresh air. Improving your fitness along the way is an added bonus! And it’s not just about getting healthier – it’s a great opportunity to socialise and meet new people from across the University too.
The Challenge is aimed at beginners and not seasoned athletes, so as long you’re healthy, you will benefit from joining.
If you’re not sure you’re fit enough, ask your GP beforehand, or email tina.miller@brunel.ac.uk to make an appointment with Brunel’s Occupational Health nurse. |
