Week commencing 5th September, 2016


Hi Walkers,
A Big Well Done to the Memory Walk participants who were all mainly Gentle Plus walkers and who kept up a fantastic pace throughout. It was a great atmosphere and before the walk we did something that resembled Zumba which was quite amusing! Kevin Whately was the Celebrity Guest who got the race started and he called our Nordic Poles “Ski Sticks” which I soon corrected him on!
Also, I must congratulate too, our Mod Plus walker Paula who completed the Swindon 10K in an amazing 74 minutes and 49 seconds. Wow! Great Job Paula.

Nordic Walks week commencing 29th August, 2016.
Hi Guys,
We managed to dodge the showers (mostly) this past week, so thanks to our Nordic Gods again! Hoping this week will be equally as good. Nearing the end of August already and so many fab walks still to come and challenges too….
7 for 7 in 7 – October 27th
This is a truly amazing event which we can tag on to! 7 Half Marathons in 7 Days for 7 charities. NO, I don’t mean we have to do all that! Nick Kier is running all 7 half marathons in 7 days and allowing walkers to join in! Yipee! The Duke and Duchess of Bedford are opening parts of their estate ordinarily closed to the public for this charity walk so it will be so great to take part! It’s not timed so we can walk at an easy pace. I said last week you had to register by the end of this month but it is actually the end of September. I will have Gordon put the Registration form on the website www.walk2fitness.co.ukfor you to print off. This is open to your friends and family too; the more the merrier. If you email your friends for sponsorship you can send this link: Donate to Childline NSPCC for 7for7in7
BEDFORD MEMORY WALK – 9K
This walk is only £5 to register and you can’t sign up on the day so if you’d like to join us, please go to the Alzheimer’s Society website to register before the end of this week. Maybe be a good practice for any 10k walkers preparing for Swindon? Great stuff!
There isn’t a HIT class or a Mod Plus Wednesday evening or Saturday morning walk this week. If you are a Mod Plus walker and still want to walk this week just let me know and I can let you know if others are interested too. Thanks Guys.

This weeks pictures are from our Bedford Park History walk! Hi Nordic Walkers,
We’ve had some great weather this past week with temperatures a little cooler which evidently has made a difference with speeds. Also I love that you’re all attacking the hills, getting the heart rates up and some of you are even taking a break from chatting to get the job done! Great stuff!
Our Bedford Park Historical walk was great and we learned a whole lot more about this beautiful park which we use. It definitely makes you look at it differently knowing how it all began and what’s happened there. Thanks for all of you who came along.

We will be having a Pop Up Friday walk on the 12th, which will be from Cranfield to Ridgemont Railway café and back along the Bunyan Trail. There is an option for one way if needed. The route round trip is approx. 8 miles. This walk will be £6. If you are interested, just drop me an email or text. Thanks.If there is heavy rain I will email you to cancel, however, we do walk in light rain so always carry your raincoat just in case. Cheers!
Have a great week!
Thanks,
Elaine
