Healthy Club – January 2018
By Declan O’Loughlin January 2018 will see Ballinrobe GAA club launch its first healthy club project. As part of this project we aim to get us all a little more active in 2018. This will run in conjunction with the very popular RTE program Operation Transformation, and will start on the Saturday 13th January with a walk. We will be holding two walks per week after that for five weeks. Walking is a fantastic way to keep active and maintain a healthy heart as it is fun, flexible and free. We will also be holding some talks on a range of health topics from – benefits of exercise, nutrition, quitting smoking and stress management.These talks and walks are open to all members of the Ballinrobe community and we will be publishing more details nearer the start date.
