taking part. Gets some trophies made up and have an award
ceremony and short talk about GO2H.

Bleep test
A
bleep test is a progressive shuttle-run test, designed to measure
fitness, you do need to be relatively fit to take part! The person undergoing the test has to carry out a
series of shuttle runs between 2 lines exactly 20 metres apart,
keeping in time with a series of audio signals. The timing begins very slowly but
becomes increasingly difficult to maintain the set pace as the
running speed increases at the start of each minute. The runner
stops when he or she can no longer maintain the required pace to
keep in time with the audio. The idea is to get friends and
family to sponsor you to run the bleep test challenge. We
have run the bleep text at the Sports Plus Camp and raised over
£3000! For further details please contact the
office.
