THE City of Greater Bendigo has partnered with Peter Krenz Leisure Centre to deliver a series of low-cost outdoor fitness sessions for people of all fitness levels.<\/p>\n

The Lights On sessions will offer community members four different six-week programs, to take place at Ewing Park in Havlin Street and Lake Neangar in Eaglehawk on Tuesday and Thursday evenings up until 31 August.<\/p>\n

The programs aim to give residents, in particular women and gender diverse community members, more opportunities to be physically active in the evening through the darkest part of the year.<\/p>\n

Each program costs $30 (or $5 per class) and includes six 45-minute sessions of either an outdoor equipment circuit, combining outdoor fitness equipment and bodyweight exercises, or a beginner’s running program.<\/p>\n

The sessions will be guided by qualified fitness instructors, with options such as Outdoor Equipment Circuit (cardio focus), 5.30pm on Tuesdays at Ewing Park, Beginners Running Program, 6.30pm Tuesdays at Ewing Park, plus Outdoor Equipment Circuit at 5.30pm and 6.30pm Thursdays at Lake Neangar.<\/p>\n

Community members are limited to one program each, with 16 to 17-year-olds welcome to participate, subject to parental permission.<\/p>\n
