It Takes An Olympic Village

They’ve got medals…

he one thing you can say about Ignite Fitness in Delgany is that they don’t tend to do things by halves…

And that goes for the workouts in their gym as well as the lads’ fundraising efforts for worthy causes.

Their latest adventure saw the Brennan boys hosting their first-ever Community Games, with members invited to take on a series of challenges. Which meant plenty of squats, press-ups, deadlifts, bowling with a wall ball and dumbbells, and other bonkers tests of balance, reflexes and eye for detail.

Ultimately, the idea of the day was, says Cian Brennan,”community fun, everyone working together, having a laugh, and meeting new people”.

For some though, it was all about the free tea, coffee agus refreshments, provided by handy neighbours, The Wicklow Arms.

“The Games went off better than we anticipated,” added Adam Brennan. “It was great to see so many new members stepping out of their comfort zone and trying something new.

“The atmosphere and the support for each was amazing to see and it has gotten us excited about doing another one soon…”
