As an unfit, overweight, nearly 10 years retired, country-lover, spotting Sarah’s poster for a free taster session of Nordic Walking tempted me to ‘have a go’!

Sarah’s efficient, focused, encouraging, well-instructed four week course ensued, with the last lesson in a ‘ferocious storm’.  This gave me a sense of achievement and a new activity to pursue.  The poles aid faster walking, so ‘off we go’!
