I have just heard that Disability Sport Fife coach Lucy Walkup teamed up with Robert Anderson during the week for a walk and catch up during lock down. They live quite close to one another in Glenrothes. They managed an 8K walk and talk that did the both of them a power of good. Robert passes on best wishes to all his friends who attend DSF sessions and asked me to say how much he is missing everybody.
Lucy is managing about 60K per week plus HIIT sessions and is pleased that she has managed to sustain a regular physical activity regime during lock down. Lucy is missing all the swimmers she works with at Carnegie Swimming Club and all the DSF members she coaches on Monday evening and Thursday morning at multi sports. As a university physical education undergraduate she is kept busy but she thoroughly enjoys teaching and coaching in the community.
Disability Sport Fife is so pleased to have Lucy on board as a member of our leadership team. As a participant she was hugely supportive of DSF activities and would never turn down the opportunity to represent Team Fife in a swimming gala. Lucy’s career as a GB swimmer included distinguished Deaflympics representation. Just the kind of pedigree you expect for the walk buddy of Fife’s most committed peer mentor volunteer, Robert Anderson.
