Nordic Walking week commencing 14th January, 2019
Hi Walkers,
Another great week of walks and for those who haven’t been in a while; it’s so encouraging seeing you returning to Nordic Walking. Welcome back. We have had some great Taster sessions this past Saturday, and now the courses are full too, so I think the word is out about the many benefits of Nordic Walking. Woohoo!
INJURY
I have managed to aggravate my calf muscle strain further during the last Taster yesterday and felt a distinct pop in the muscle. I will therefore have to rest it this week in order for it to repair. All the walks will go ahead as usual thanks to my wonderful Walk Leaders and helpers. Thanks, Gordon, Denise, Paul, Caron and Barbara for your assistance.
PARQ FORM
We have now put the ParQ (Pre Activity Readiness Questionnaire) on the Website www.walk2fitness.co.uk Please remember to fill this in and hand to one of the Walk Leaders or myself by the end of January. This form is required by all walkers who wish to attend our walks. Many thanks.
