Less than a month away before this years Run for the Kids

Alexandra Ave, Alexandra Gardens, MELBOURNE

Sunday 24th March, 2013

It’s time for everyone to sign up for the main fun run event in Melbourne for 2013. That event of course is The 2013 Herald Sun/CityLink Run for the Kids.

This is the biggest fun run event in Melbourne each year and helps raise money for the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal.
In 2013, we hope to raise more than ever for the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal. Every little bit helps provide the Hospital with funds for new equipment or facilities.

Find out more about the event here: https://www.maxnrgpt.com.au/melbourne-fun-run-2013/run-for-the-kids/

Giving on Good Friday – ‘that they may grow’ is a Victorian tradition, with television sets tuned in to the 18 hour long telethon; perhaps for the chance to hear a special donation read out, or to learn of the miracles that happen at the hospital. It is all about helping those who are our smallest and most vulnerable.

The great strength of the Appeal lies with the thousands of people from all walks of life, who volunteer their time, expertise and creativity to organise fundraising activities throughout the year.

It is a non denominational, non political organisation that exists solely to raise funds for The Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne.

Exercise of the Week Weekly Workout

Ad Break Workout

Add Fitness into your TV time!

We all get stuck after work or during the holidays watching TV and most of the time something that is not actually worth watching. To break things up and most of all get you moving, why not try some simple exercises through the ad breaks that can be done in your own lounge room.

You will be surprised how much you can do on your couch or in your lounge area without using any equipment.

Most ad breaks last about 2-4mins, so instead of getting up and getting a snack or not moving at all, as soon as the commercials come on during the show, jump up and use the ads as a timer and follow the simple exercises we have provided below.

To get the blood pumping through your whole body we have selected a variety of upper, lower and core exercises which will give you a total body workout in small burst then you can rest while your show comes back on.

Doesn’t sound hard does it? Through an hour long show you may get up to 20 minutes of ad breaks so use it wisely. In the long run it is better than doing nothing at all. We all need to be a little more active so don’t use watching your favourite TV show as an excuse, use it as a workout!

Get your kids involved! If you have children who watch a lot of TV why not use this as a fun way to them moving and they still get to watch their show!

In the end it’s not rocket science to know we have to have more exercise in our life and it doesn’t take much to get off your couch for a couple of minutes and move!
