Member Spotlight: Alan and Anna

This month we’re sharing an inspirational member story with you; meet Anna and Alan Mcenteggart, a husband-and-wife fitness duo who have been members of SCL for over years. The husband and wife duo, who regularly attend classes at both Swinton & Pendlebury and Worsley Leisure Centre, have always been passionate about fitness and staying active.  Anna and Alan told us about their motivation for fitness and what they enjoy most about being a member of SCL.

“We regularly attend Circuits classes with Gareth Davies, several Bootcamps a week and Personal Training sessions with David Parkin. We love the camaraderie and banter in the classes. Everyone pushes each other to keep going, to become stronger” says Alan.

Anna likewise loves the social side, but also enjoys the accomplishment of being able to complete challenges that she could not previously.

“I come away from a class feeling a sense of achievement. We’re both 57 and have just achieved our personal bests at ParkRun[free, weekly, timed 5km running events, held around the country in accessible, off road green spaces] in under 24 minutes. It just goes to show how age is just a number and if you want to create a new healthy habit then just go for it, you’ll be amazed at what you can achieve. If you’re new to classes, then come along, get stuck in, and come and find us as we will certainly make you feel welcome!”
