John and Simon’s Story

We caught up with John and Simon who attend walking rugby sessions organised by Canterbury Rugby Club. They explain how the sessions are helping them keep active and manage their weight.

John told us “Though it’s walking, you actually suddenly think actually that’s got the old ticker going. And for those of us like me, that have a job where I sit down on my bum most of the time, actually some form of exercise when you get into mid 50s and past that is, is really good.

Simon added “This year I’ve probably lost close to a stone in weight as part of doing exercise here, as well as concentrating on my diet.”
