Science Week!

12/11/2012

 

Science Week activities are underway at IT Carlow.

There will be a Free Health Screening on Tuesday 13th November from 10.30am – 1pm.  This health check will involve measuring height, weight, body mass index, cholesterol, blood pressure, fitness and lifestyle. DSH Health Science Staff and third year Sport Science students will be conducting the tests and all results will be treated in the strictest confidence. 

Advice and information on topics such as Getting Active, Quitting smoking, Healthy Cholesterol, Know your Blood Pressure, Managing your Stress will also be available on the day. 

We are also organising a new ‘Couch to 5k’ Meet and Train Group.  Whether you’ve never run before, or are looking to get fit again after a break from exercise, or you just want other people to train with, the Couch to 5k Meet and Train Group is for anyone interested in walking/recreational running/jogging who would like to train at their own pace in a fun and sociable environment.  Please register your interest on Tuesday next at the Health Screening stand.
