As part of a recent marketing campaign, Sport Aberdeen decided to run a radio competition through Original 106.

From Monday – Thursday, entrants had to guess the sound of a different piece of gym equipment. The four entrants were then entered into a draw on the Friday and the winner received a FREE Sport Aberdeen Get active membership.

Rory Smith, the lucky competition winner, said: “I entered the competition after hearing it on the radio and was surprised to be picked.

“I knew the sound of an exercise bike well after many years using them… I was doubly surprised to be picked as the winner of a whole year’s Get active membership with Sport Aberdeen.”

Sharing details about how he plans to use his prize, Rory said: “I plan to get myself a bit more toned as I do run but have been absent from the gym for a fair while and it’s showing….

“I also plan on trying all that the membership has to offer…even the snowboarding and skiing!

“I did my first marathon on the 5th October this year with the Fit Like Joggers who planned and organised my day… it was a slow and steady run but so well organised.

“My fellow FLJs were so supportive from planning the run, to running with me, supporting from the road side and turning up to welcome me over the line for a few well earned beers, and partying on when I ran out of steam! They truly are the best bunch of people.”

“My goal now, as I have said earlier, is to build a better or leaner version of me, as there are a few miles on the clock and as we mature, a good level of fitness is important.

“I am very grateful to have won this prize and intend to make the most of it.”
