Just received my cork Walx poles so watch this space for a “Power of Poles” introduction to Nordic walking session very soon.
We often have to repeat that it’s not walks but WALX with an X so when we saw this in the midsummer sky we thought it was worth a share! WALX are walks that give you a little Xtra with every step - happy summer solstice folks!

So very sad, my thoughts are with Clare and family 💔❤️
No stranger to our pages or our instructors and walkers, we have often featured the brilliant, thought provoking and life changing Dr Michael Mosley.
Today we are thinking of all his family, friends and loved ones as they face a future without this amazing man.
With huge respect, may you rest in peace Dr Mosley 💜

I can vouch for this 😀 if you’re appropriately dressed you can go out in all weathers. Walking with (Nordic walking poles in lightening is not recommended though)
Weather: Walk in rain can make us happier, scientists say
Your might not always fancy a walk in a downpour, but scientists believe it can lift your mood.

We've had so much rain recently, our fabulous Nordic Walking Instructors have spent the last few weeks route checking, re-routing, checking again and then wading a little... Nordic Walking Watford call it a Free Boot Wash...🥾💦
So this week it has been soooooo nice to see sunshine and blue sky!
And as always our groups are making the most of it - why not join your local group and see what they have on offer for Spring? You might be surprised that it's not just about Nordic Walking!
