LIMERICK’S ‘Mr Motivator’ Richie Clifford will attempt a new record this Thursday (May 23) for the most amount of people doing aerobics class at one time.
Up to 1000 people, including breakfast radio presenter Hector Ó hEochagáin, are expected to take part in the early morning hour-long fitness class at the UL Arena, which will be broadcast live on air between 8 and 9am on RTE 2FM.
The show will link up with gyms and across the country.
Richie, a grand-father of one and father of four, who teaches step classes in the arena will be joined by his wife Carmel and daughters and his 82-year-old dad Phonsie who is due to run his sixth Dublin Marathon this year.
Richie, from Garryowen, is encouraging members of the public to come on the day in a bid to smash the record.
“It’s a unique event. Hector will be doing the show with me. We’ll be linked up with gyms all over the country but Limerick is the mothership. The event is free to anyone interested in taking part and we’ll have some Munster players there too,”he said
