ADIDAS WOMEN'S CHALLENGE
The ADIDAS Women's Challenge is a 5 kilometres
race that consists of thousands of women running, jogging or walking
to the finish line. Over the years thousands of women have risen to
the challenge and surprised not just their friends and family but
themselves too.
Those who have never run before will be amazed how easy it is to do.
You don't have to be ultra-fit to become part of this incredible day.
Of course, at the head of the field is a hotly contested elite race.
These are world class athletes - but behind them is the serious business
of thousands of ordinary women of all ages shapes and sizes running,
jogging or just walking the distance.
What will the ADIDAS Women's Challenge do for you? Flora has always been
committed to the health of you and your family. By participating in
this race women will have new goals for fitness in their lives. Once
you take the first steps to fitness you will be amazed at what you
can achieve. Just remember . . .
• The
first step to take is the hardest. Make a commitment to taking exercise
- be it running, walking (a mixture of both is great), swimming or
cycling - and stick to it
• Set yourself achievable goals. Your
goal could be anything from completing the course, to flying past
the Olympic champion on the home straight in record breaking time.
It's up to you!
• This
one is important - get into a routine. Set aside specific days and
times to exercise and - within reason- don't miss them. Little and
often is the key
• Exercise with friends' it will
motivate the group to keep up a routine and not let each other down.
A shared experience is always more enjoyable
• Don't do too much
too soon. If you are a beginner, start with walking and gradually
mix in running over several weeks
• Be safe! Run with friends, never
in the dark, lonely or deserted areas and, if running at night, make
sure you can be seen by wearing light coloured or reflective clothing
• Vary your exercise programme. Change your route and scenery and
mix with other aerobic activities to ensure that you have fun!
• Have
more fun after your run!
