BARKING & DAGENHAM-based Leftley Sports Club has launched women’s cardio sessions which will take place on a weekly basis.
The first group went out on Saturday morning, and activities involved brisk walking, running and jogging all within a social atmosphere. The newly formed group will meet every Saturday at the Claire Gardens entrance to Mayesbrook Park.
Commenting after the debut session, Noor Jahan from Leftley Sports Club said, “We have had a very enjoyable first day and hope to inspire many of our local ladies to join our weekly activities. Our emphasis is on fun and fitness and we hope this can become a platform to inspire many females to implement sports and health activities into their lives.”
Leftley Sports Club Chair Muhammed Ali added, “We are confident the ladies’ group can be as successful as the men’s group. Health is vital to our general wellbeing and I would like to thank our volunteers for setting up and delivering the session.”
