Week commencing 10th February 2020

Nordic Walks week commencing
10th February 2020

A great turnout by all my new walkers this week.  The first couple of times out you’ll get more familiar with how the speed groups work.  If you found your first session too easy, move up to the next one.  I will be there to advise you if needed.  All regular walks are 1 hour long and approximately 3 miles.  Womble Walks & Pop Up walks distances vary.   


PARQ FORM
For all my new walkers you will have to fill out a PARQ form and bring it with you the next time you come.  You can find this form on the website www.walk2fitness.co.uk.  If you need a hard copy just let me know.   

WEATHER THIS WEEK
Because of the extreme winds, we need to take extra care this week.  I may ask you to hold your poles if it is gusty.  This is prevent the poles being blown into your stride which could cause you to trip.  As always if there are any cancellations or changes to the walks this will be put on the website front page.  Please check before you leave to make sure walks are on.  Thanks everyone. 

WEDNESDAY WOMBLE 
  This weeks Womble walk is starting at 11am and meeting at
Priory Business Park car park, Stannard Way, MK44 3WH. 
Mod 2 & 3 pace. £6.  Approximately a 5.5 mile flat walk with light lunch/drinks at The Longholm cafe around mile 4. Click here to view the menu https://thelongholme.com/  After a nice relaxed snack/drink at the cafe we will stroll back to Priory and the Business Park car park.  Please check Google maps to see how to get there as this car park is just off the A421 and you can avoid driving into Bedford using this easier car park saving a lot of time. Yay! 
PAWS needed for some of the walk. 
Please BOOK onto this walk by text or email by Monday evening
Many thanks.
