It's come round to that time of year when you're fed up and don't know what to do with yourself....Christmas and the New Year celebrations are over and all you have to look forward to is trying to squeeze yourself into your work clothes......which are probably way too small now because of all the eating and drinking you've done. If that's you and you don't know what the answer is? Don't panic! We do!
It's simple.....just get your running shoes on and shed those few extra pounds by going round to the Rugby Club on Burnby Lane at about 6.30 on Wednesday nights and get back in shape with some new friends. If you want to find out more, contact us or just turn up....
