Some great running events coming up in Kerry over the next month or so 🏃🏼‍♂️🏃🏻‍♀️👟🌞🙌

This idea is from today's edition of my 3-2-1 Thursday newsletter.

Each one features⁠ 3 short ideas from me, 2 quotes from others⁠, and 1 question for you to ponder⁠.

A while ago I got an email from Milly Khan, a Neuro-Physiotherapists working at Guys and St Thomas’ Hospital explaining the benefits of high intensity exercise for people living with Parkinson’s disease.

In her message she said: "You may not be aware but high intensity exercise is really important for Parkinson’s patients, especially those in the early stages of the disease. When people work at a high HR level an amazing chemical called BDNF is released within the brain.

This chemical increases the brain's ability to change and adapt. Recent research suggests that doing 30-45 minutes of high intensity exercise 3x a week can create new neural pathways in the brain. This supports the theory that exercise may slow the progression of Parkinson’s but more research is needed to confirm this. Either way, exercise has shown to improve people’s walking, balance, sleep and quality of life."

Thank you Milly for inviting me to Guys and St Thomas’ to learn more and to film a special workout for people living with Parkinson's 💙

If you would like to try the workout you can find it on my YouTube Channel “The Body Coach TV”
