Mind Over Matter and Bernie's Visit

 Day 15, 75% through the Season Gardener’s Academy. We’ve just realised how fastg things are moving on and on the back of an adventure day yesterday, today Roger’s team got their chance to hit the Boxing Gym.

Despite being exhausted from a full-on week, the team realised that they’d already pushed themselves both physically and mentally beyond what they thought they were capable of. Now it was time to push even further.

At Bernie’s Gym in Thornwood, Partick the name said it all – “The Edge”. Today we took ourselves over it! Three circuits of physical work out, working in pairs and with lots of shouting and encouraging, the team did an amazing session. This type of opportunity made us think just how far we’ve come and how much fitter we could be with that extra bit of effort.

None of the Academies visits to this type of unique Gym and contact with Bernie would be possible without the strong partnership Stevie Kidd has developed with Bernie, and as a token of all of our appreciation, today we surprised Bernie with framed photos of him with one of Scotland’s boxing legends, Jim Watt. In Bernie’s own words, having received them..... “NOW, THATS WHAT AM TALKIN’ ABOUT!!”
