Fitness Belfast Gets Active at the NI Chest Heart & Stroke Red Dress Fun Run 2024!

We were thrilled to be a part of the recent Northern Ireland Chest Heart & Stroke Red Dress Fun Run, and even more excited to lead the warm-up for all the amazing participants!

You are sure to have heard of NICHS – a fantastic local charity dedicated to tackling chest, heart, and stroke illnesses across Northern Ireland. Their Red Dress Fun Run is a major fundraising event, encouraging people of all ages and abilities to come together, get active, and raise vital funds for this important cause.

This year's event saw hundreds of women (and some fantastically supportive men!) donned in red dresses, ready to take on the 5k or 10k course at Stormont Estate. The atmosphere was electric, filled with energy and enthusiasm for a great cause.

Fitness Belfast Gets the Party Started!

Before the runners set off, Gary at Fitness Belfast (and his mini-me helper!) had the privilege of leading the official warm-up routine. He got everyone moving, limbering up muscles and getting those hearts pumping in preparation for the run ahead.

At Fitness Belfast, we're passionate about promoting health and well-being in our community. We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to live a healthy and active life, and we're proud to support organisations like NICHS who share this vision.

The Red Dress Fun Run was a fantastic event, raising awareness and vital funds for such a worthy cause. We're already looking forward to next year's event!
