Nordic Walking week commencing 6th November, 2017
Hi Walkers,
We were blessed with a lovely sunny day for our Pop Up walk last week as we walked 6 miles in some great countyside near Jordan’s Mill. Thanks to all who came!
We have a few more Pop Ups coming up so get your diaries out!
June M wanted to thank all of the Walkers who attended her Craft morning at her house. We look forward to next year June!
Thank you too to all the ladies who came to Blackpool and made it a laughter filled few days. Thanks to Sheelagh for organizing everything, even the knotted hankies for our head!
POP UP FRIDAY
(10am – Coffee Morning & Christmas Fayre after the walk. Church Hill, Aspley Guise MK17 8HW) – 4 miles – £5
Parking for this walk will be on the street on the corner of Church Hill and Church Street. We will be walking a lovely route around this pretty village and at the end there is a Christmas Fayre at the church. Some of our talented and creative Walkers will be there selling their wares and it should be a wonderful morning.
WEDNESDAY WALKS – New POP UP!
After feedback from our walkers, I have decided to do Pop Up Wednesday’s instead of our regular Wednesday walks. Therefore, as with our Pop Up Friday walks, they will be in various places and of varying lengths to give you more of a challenge and more variety. This does mean that they will not be every Wednesday but will Pop Up a couple of times a month. Yay!
NORDIC WALKING CLASS COSTS:
All evening classes – £5
Moderate & Gentle Plus – £5 or £4 if you have your own Poles
Striders & Gentle – £5
Super G – £10
Long Distance and Pop Up walks costs dependent on Distance.
Private Sessions: £12.50 – £15
SPEED GRADING KEY:
1 = Striders (for the faster Nordic Walker, optional Hill running)
2 = Moderate (yet challenging)
3 = Gentle Plus (smidge slower than Moderate yet invigorating)
4 = Gentle (marginally slower than G+ class but energizing)
5 = HIT Nordic (High Intensity Training, Tough and exhilarating!)
6 = Super G (Very slow so extra care can be taken)
