Paddy’s Car Dealer Challenge!

21 February 2011

Chief Instructor Paddy Esler last week helped an 18-strong team from Macrae & Dick car dealership in Inverness raise over £5000 in sponsorship for the Help for Heroes charity, which provides practical and direct support to soldiers wounded in conflict. His eight hour bootcamp challenge included a gruelling 10k canal run, speed and weight circuits, spinning, boxing and a two-hour team challenge. Staff members had their own personal reasons for taking part – from shedding the pounds after Christmas to supporting friends and family currently serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. Paddy held a series of training sessions beforehand, and on the day said “The team was very motivated and eager to reach their fundraising pledge, which has been successfully achieved with a fantastic effort all round.”
