🎉Huge congratulations to our incredibly fit Westbank gym member Zoe Berry🎉

In 2023 I was due to do Hyrox doubles (an intense fitness event based on running and functional fitness), however, life changed and that didn't materialise...

I've always enjoyed training but I fell out of routine gained weight, lost muscle mass and had achilles tendonopathy so just walking was uncomfortable.

In January 2025, I refocused. I got back in to training, joined Westbank and have been going regularly since April last year.

I recently entered a similar event...Keltx. This is 7x800m runs with 7 functional fitness stations in between (bike, kettlebells, ski erg, lunges, rows, burpees, wallballs!!). Training paid off, I completed this with my doubles partner in April and the next challenge is mixed doubles (October).

Westbank has provided me a safe and sociable place to train …… we all have our reasons for being there, it’s a special place.

Everyone is showing up for themselves and smashing their own goals. Zoe
