It feels like I've been saying this forever ๐Ÿคฃ but it's looking like it will be yet another beautiful Friday morning ๐ŸŒž๐ŸŒž๐ŸŒž this week, so why not take that first step ๐Ÿ‘ฃ and join our Fabulous Friday Walkers ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™‚๏ธfor some fresh air and a natter in beautiful Pontefract Park ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿฆ†๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŒท

We head out for a leisurely stroll ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿšถโ€โ™‚๏ธaround the racecourse at a pace to suit all, no one is ever left behind or alone โค๏ธ There is always plenty of chatter and lots of laughs ๐Ÿคฃ

Depending on the temperature ๐ŸŒก, and how we feel, we have a few options as to whether we do the usual route or a shorter route. Or, we might have the option of trying something new this week, or in future weeks ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”

๐Ÿค— Newcomers, including children and friendly dogs ๐Ÿ•, are always welcome and it is completely ๐Ÿ’ฏ free!

We set off at 9.30am ๐Ÿ•ฅ, every Friday, from Huggamug at the pavilion behind the racecourse. There is plenty of free parking there and some stay for a cuppa โ˜•๏ธ or cake ๐Ÿง afterwards.

Tonight's walk was an "out and back" over "the Stacks" up towards North Featherstone. Although, without Tour Guide Nic Jane, we did have a slight detour off the main route and across a field ๐Ÿคฃ

The weather was perfect with a nice breeze and it was lovely to welcome Kath and Julie to the group.

If you are looking to meet new people, or getting out and about more, why not join us next week - we also have groups in Pontefract on Monday evenings and Friday mornings.

It was another perfect morning for our Fabulous Friday walkers on their walk around the racecourse. The sun ๐ŸŒž was out and the jackets soon came off as we set off.

It was lovely to welcome Gill to the group today (although she was a bit camera shy ๐Ÿ“ท). We hope she will become a regular on Friday mornings or Monday evenings.

There was plenty of chatter ๐Ÿ—ฃ and laughs ๐Ÿคฃ as usual from this friendly bunch.

Why not join us next Friday, or if you can't make it, we have evening walks on Mondays (Asda in Pontefract) and Tuesdays (behind Featherstone Library).

Tonight's walk was up Station Lane and then over "the stacks" and back. Unfortunately, the humidity sapped everyone's energy but we still managed 4.85 km in an hour.

If you are looking to meet new people, or getting out and about more, why not join us next week - we also have groups in Pontefract on Monday evenings and Friday mornings.
