SKI 2017

We’ve got a new date for our SKI 2017 trip – it will now be January 21st-28^th. We’ll also be enjoying a later flight from Birmingham Airport, rather than enduring the matchstick-eyes of an early morning at Gatwick – and it’s so much easier to get to Birmingham than Gatwick anyway!

Deposits will be taken hopefully by the time the next newsletter comes out, by which time I should have secured the Birmingham flights AND a week’s ski pass – saving an extra £250!!

Spring into Fitness this month!

Last Tuesday was officially the first day of spring, according to the Met Office, and hopefully everything is going well for all those in marathon training. We are pleased to see that the Prime Energy Fitness classes are also very busy. Must be a sign that our members are getting results and enjoying the formats. Last week’s Monday night class at Kirtlington was a complete sell out, despite there being half a dozen no shows!

Long may this spring surge continue?

London Marathon: Sunday 24^th April 2016

On Saturday 12^th March I shall be giving my annual pre-marathon seminar at the Manor House at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford between 10.30am-11.30am. The talk will be full of great tips and it’s especially geared towards those running the 26.2 miles for the first time. So if you know anyone doing the marathon this year please let them know, as they are more than welcome to attend. Contact the office for further details: 01869 352000.

London Marathon 2016 Countdown

Socialising – the Prime Energy Way!

Prime Energy Fitness isn’t all about hard work – we have a lot of fun too!

Congratulations to our “hard core” members who turned out on Christmas Day for our annual “Big Day” workout … traditionally followed by a glass of Champagne, of course. Well done, team!

And our “Little Black Dress” ladies had a fab Christmas lunch at the Lion in Wendlebury, with everyone exercising (excuse the pun) portion control on both the food and the vino – don’t they look great!!

Our “Spring Lean” class is now in progress so come along and join us on a Thursday morning!

SKI 2016 report – and news about SKI 2017!

The Prime Energy Fitness ski tour last month was a huge success, and as usual all the class attendees and personal trainers talked about how their training beforehand paid dividends once they were on the slopes.

“The classes certainly paid off. I’ve never skied continuously for 6 days before – amazing!!” SM, Oxford

During the day, the tourists blitzed the pistes and pounded the powder in the off piste, too. Evenings were spent round the dinner table, with sumptuous food prepared by Ben and Tony, our hosts – and of course every meal was preceded by drinks and canapés. They even served our party with tea and coffee in bed each morning to get us off to a positive start.

Ski 2017, which will be our 24th tour, is already in the planning, and once again we will be staying in a luxury 12-berth chalet in Val d’Isere. So if you fancy joining the tour next year please express your interest to Barry asap – click here to drop me a line.

Many will be invited … but only 12 will get to tour.

(And as usual 3 places have been reserved off plan due to the success of previous tours – so make sure you get in touch quickly to reserve your place!)

London Marathon Places and Seminar

The date of the annual London Marathon draws ever closer and if you’re taking part, your training should be well underway by now. If you were unable to obtain a place but still wish to run (and are fit enough) I have access to entries even at this late stage

I will also be giving my annual pre-marathon talk at Manor House, John Radcliffe Hospital at 10.30am on Saturday March 12^th. It’s always very informative and full of top tips to help you make the most of it, both on the big day itself and in the weeks leading up to it. It’s well worth attending and you and your friends are most welcome. See you there – and as ever, please spread the word!
