Fitter Younger We aim to increase the physical activity levels of today's Children and Adolescents.
(3)

As the world becomes more technologically advanced, the children and adolescents of today are spending less time participating in physical activities and more time watching television or playing computer games. This increase in a sedentary lifestyle is having a huge negative impact on the health and well-being of Children and Adolscents. Increases in the risks of Cardiovascular diseases, obesity issues, as well as other mental issues such as social anxiety and depression are all influenced by lack of physical activity. Physical activity provides the opportunity to be active, have fun, feel good, be healthy and express yourself. And 'Fitter Younger' are providing the opportunities to increase participation in physical activities. Active children are happy and healthy and more likely to become active adults.

Fitter Younger and Lismullen National School reached a significant milestone today as the girls and boys participated in our fundraising event for the 10th year!!

There have been a lot of changes since their first School Marathon Relay event back in 2017; a change of principal, new teachers, a new School building being constructed, but one thing that has been very consistent over the years is the enthusiasm that all the pupils have for taking part in the event. Once again, this year was no different, and this helped the School finish the marathon distance in a super time! Well done to everyone involved!!
