Get Nordic Walking SE

Good morning all.

Apologies for recent absence. Unfortunately I am dealing with a family crisis that means my time is being utilised elsewhere.

It's becoming increasingly clear that this is going to be a longer term situation than previously anticipated, so I will have to put walks on hold for a longer period.

The current Chakra Sessions are being covered, but any other classes, 1-1s and small groups will be back in the, hopefully, not too distant future.

I appreciate your understanding in this matter, and wish you all happy walking. Please continue to make your steps count 💫

Much love

Views from what felt like the bottom of the world, to the top. A hidden cottage, and my nemesis.... the rocks where my running career came to an untimely end 💫

Also felt like I walked through at least 3 different seasons with sun, rain, hail and high winds 😁

Refreshed, revitalised, rejuvenated 💕

Last night we trialled another of the 10-12k routes for the forthcoming Tuesday Travels walks, which commence on 25th July.

We started with a rainbow, and found many pots of gold on our route. New born foals, picturesque cottages, beautiful established trees, miles of cycle tracks (without potholes), and developing friendships 💕

An evening well spent brought a sleep of content.

New timetable coming soon for the summer holiday period 💫

Lots of laughs at Claire's penultimate lesson today. We attempted the advanced techniques, which brought a lot of hilarity.

As expected, Claire mastered them like a boss after practise. Next week we are taking to the fields with the knowledge of the past 6 weeks to help us make each step count.

Always a pleasure to spend this time grounding with Claire Evans 💕

We will be back at this Monday afternoon slot after the school holidays. All welcome 💫

Today's walk took us away from the fields and back to the 16th, 17th and 18th century.

Harlow is recorded in the doomsday records as having 50 residents spread around Mulberry, Matching, Hunsden and Pishiobury.

We wandered past some Alms houses, a legacy of Francis Reeve, to more recent affordable housing built in 1910 by the Oddfellows taking in various points of interest along the way. Ended up at the oldest chapel dating back to 1150, before a leisurely stroll back to more modern times.

These blue plaques were highlighted during the walk with much to discuss about the people who inspired them 💕

Next week we will enjoy some teaching before heading out to the meadows for a butterfly watch 🦋

Please DM to book 💫

Took a different sort of pole out for a walk today, and did some litter picking with Churchgate Street Residents' Association and Cllr Joel Charles

It was lovely to do something for the community where we live. A great turn out of local support for the area, and many bags collected 🌟

Tomorrows Sunday Strollers are meeting at Mill Lane park 9 am for a historical stroll 💕

Please message if you would like to join us 🌟

Don't forget to pick up your loyalty card 😁

Beautiful impromptu wander with these two tonight.

Lots of information shared and laughter. Many historical local sites, and amazement at places we didn't know existed. You definitely get a different view of the area on two legs instead of behind a wheel 😁

Thoroughly refreshing way to spend a midweek evening 💕

If you go down to the woods today.... well we did. And it was glorious 🌳

Feeling the heartbeat of the tree, swaying in the wind. The rain making a quick appearance. Feeling our glutes activate, and our shoulders helping to power us up the hills.

Week 4 for Claire and we are making amazing progress. Time to get to grips with the final 3 techniques of Nordic Walking next week 💕

We have new ways to join in 😁

Beautiful evening stroll around the Town Park with walkers old and new 😁

There's something magical about walking this gorgeously ancient park, which covers 160 acres and is a Grade II listed site.

So much to see and marvel over. So many varieties of greenery and wildlife. All taken care of religiously by many volunteers for whom we have much to be grateful for. Plus it is the home of my very favourite tree 💕

A variety of terrains and hills leads to an incredibly satisfying workout.

Today's Sunday Strollers took a more leisurely walk across fields, paths and over a little stream to wet our hot feet (me), stepping stones for others 💕

Lots of chat about local history, South African culture, butterflies and local foraging 🍄🌱

Next week we are planning a butterfly spotting hunt 🦋

Please message to book. All abilities catered for 💫
