Stepping up our fitness



Katie putting us through our paces

The sun was shining for our first outdoor group training session yesterday. Fitness instructor Katie Cook, ably assisted by Mel, took us through 90 minutes of cardio and core exercises. Plus there was a test half way through.

The boxing routine was a firm favourite with a couple of the group. They took to it very well and definitely punched above their weight. Hopefully no repeats of this on the mountain though!

Despite a few aches and pains this morning, we are all looking forward to the next session, and we will be encouraging the whole Nottingham Kilimanjaro group (and hopefully lots of other Boots colleagues) to join us.

And not forgetting that we have been left with a set of exercises to continue as 'homework'. Twice a week for the next month we will be working through the list below.

We'll all be fighting fit before we know it...
