Energy Fitness Centre Announces
5K in May

Energy Fitness Centre is holding its first-ever 5K in May on Saturday, May 5th, starting at 8:30 AM at La Verendrye Hospital. It’s a five-kilometre walk/run open to all age groups. The proceeds will be donated to the Just Imagine Campaign to honour a pledge that was made during the campaign.

Participants need only complete a registration form and make a minimum donation of twenty dollars to take part in this fun walk/run. Charitable receipts will be issued.

There will also be a one-kilometre mini-mite run for children 14 and under. Registration is only a toonie.

“We want this to be a fun family event”, enthused Jackie Lampi-Hughes who is the owner of Energy Fitness Centre.

All registered participants will be entered into a draw to win GREAT prizes, including a one-year membership at Energy Fitness Centre for adults and a brand new bike for children.

T-shirts will also be given to the first 100 people to pre-register.

“It’s a great opportunity for anyone who is currently training for a 10k or marathon to get out and do a 5k with a large group”, added Lampi-Hughes.

The run/walk will start and end at La Verendrye Hospital. Refreshments will be available along the route. There will also be pace bunnies to keep the more experienced runner or beginner apprised of their time.

“We wanted to do something for the Just Imagine campaign to help purchase a CT Scanner”, explained Lampi-Hughes about the idea to have the run.

“It’s a healthy way to help a great cause”, she remarked.

Registration forms are available at Energy Fitness Centre or the Foundation Office. Call 274-0415 or 274-4803 for further information.
