Are you wanting to get fit for 2020?

Fancy a Challenge to help you along?

Red January is raising money for the Charity MIND and Challenging people to do an exercise or Activity every day in January.

 
Localfamily.events have contacted local venues and created a timetable of events and prices to help you take part, organising discounts if we can.  To get the discounted price you must book in advance quoting the reference LFERED and then bring along your registration number from the RED Challenge.  You can, of course, go for a jog/walk or cycle on your own, but as the challenge is for Mind, I figured being around people is important.

 

We are kicking off the Challenge with an OpenWater Swim which is being run by Horse shoe lake Open water swimming is known to be beneficial for Depression and general health, so it feels Perfect to start the Challenge here.  If Open water swimming is not for you there are many other options, Alice holt forest activity centre is offering RED January competitors Bike hire for only £5 for an hour.  and there is an organised walk hosted in, Bordon.

We have put together a selection of idea's so that you have the option of not exercising on your own.
