OUR WALK LEADERS

Our Walk Leaders are there to guide you on the walks but they are also there to listen to you if you have any questions or if you feel you’re struggling etc.  Always let the Walk Leaders know if you need to slow down or if you feel a hill is too much for you.  There are always alternative routes we can take to make it easier.  If the walkers are heading up a huge hill that you know is too much for you, just mention it to the Walk Leader as they will always help and give an alternative for you and anyone else who is struggling a bit.  My Walkers don’t mind in the least if anyone has to go an easier way as they all know; that was them once!  There is certainly no shame in taking the easier alternative if you are struggling.  It’s not always the best idea to go with the flow or push yourself too much as this will only lead to injury.   Always know that WE ARE HERE FOR YOU,
 our FAB Nordic Walkers!
THURSDAYS WALK START TIME 10:15AM
 This Thursday our walk will start at 10:15am from the Jolly Coopers Pub on Wardhedges Road, Flitton.  This walk has some of the best views in Bedfordshire and is a fun varied walk with only one hill!  This is a stunner!  Hope to see you there.
