In this Episode we are joined by Mike Weeks to discuss the importance of physical activity for kids.
Mike is the founder of Gymrun in the UK. He is passionate about improving the physical health, literacy and well-being of kids in schools.
Mike introduces himself and tells us how he became so passionate about kids and fitness and what Gymrun is all about. Mike's approach to physical activity is very inclusive and kids are encouraged to better themselves rather than compete with others.
We discuss in depth the importance of the school, teachers and parents being onboard about promoting and instilling the importance of physical activity.
With growing obesity rates amongst children and a distinct decrease in physical activity both in schools and at home, this topic is more important than ever.
We found it really interesting to compare and contrast the situation here in Kenya with kids and fitness to that in the UK.
