Week Commencing 3rd July 2017

Nordic Walking week commencing 3rd July, 2017

Hi Nordic Walkers,

We have a few updates for you regarding upcoming longer walks:
We are changing our sponsored walk that was scheduled for July 15th to mid to late August and I’ll get that date to you soon.  This is now going to be a Four Pub Walk! Yay!

Instead on the 15th July we will be doing the Two Moors Heritage Trail which starts in Flitton and follows a wonderful historical circular route to the edges of Flitwick and back.  This is a 5 mile walk and we will start at 11:30am on that Saturday from The White Hart in Flitton.  A well deserved drink at the Pub afterwards will make this a great day.  So put this in you diary and let me know by July 12th if you’d like to join us. Thanks.

DOVEDALE DIPPER – Peak District (15 miles) – August 6th. Please check out this link for more details: http://www.matlockrotary.org.uk/

 

HOLIDAY HANGOVERS
Sometimes when we go on holiday or have a break from exercise it’s hard to get back to your usual fitness routine.  This is why it’s so important to try to avoid any gaps when returning from holiday. It’s easy to come up with excuses but you’ll know in your guts. The quicker you get back to regular exercising/Nordic Walking, the better you’ll feel. Woohoo!

 

NORDIC WALKING CLASS COSTS:

All evening classes – £5
Moderate & Gentle Plus – £5 or £4 if you have your own Poles
