Feel Alive Outside – It’s National Outdoor Fitness Day
Active Nation is supporting the first National Outdoor Fitness Day by encouraging all of our Supporters to get outside and active this Saturday!
Whether it’s a walk around the park with the family, a bike ride or a run to your nearest Active Nation venue – any form of outdoor exercise is going to be Brilliant for you.
The inaugural event has been organised by British Military Fitness (BMF) who have teamed up with rugby legend Austin Healey and former European and Commonwealth Champion Iwan Thomas MBE.
BMF was established in 1999, and now run more than 400 outdoor fitness sessions every week at over 145 locations across the UK – including Active Nation’s Outdoor Sports Centre in Southampton. And to encourage as many people as possible to see and feel the health benefits of outdoor fitness, BMF is offering free a one-hour class to everyone on May 31st at selected locations.
Austin said: “There are more ways than ever before to keep fit and active, yet as a nation we are becoming more obese and less active. For me, there’s no better way to keep fit and enjoy working out than in the great outdoors.”
Iwan Thomas MBE is an advocate of outdoor exercise, he said: “There are many things I love about exercising outdoors including breathing in fresh air which makes you feel so much more energized and alive. Why limit yourself to getting fit indoors, when exercising outdoors gives you so much more variety, freedom and fun. I certainly encourage everyone to get active outside, especially on Saturday 31 May for National Outdoor Fitness Day.”
Feeling inspired? Then leave the sofa and go outdoors this Saturday! For more information about BMF and their outdoor sessions visit: www.britmilfit.com
