There is so much to do in San Diego.
September is almost over and I have had one of the best summers in a long time, I thought I would have more Nordic walking Clinics.
Fall is coming and the water temperatures are going to go down and in the mountains we should have cool nights ready for snow. The elk are starting to
bugle in Wyoming and the colors are alive.
These are some of the reasons I need to go Nordic Walking. Nordic Walking is well known to have a wide variety of health benefits, so many it is hard to list.
Before the benefits of Nordic Walking had been demonstrated to me by experts I had been trying to show others in my local area (Cowles Mountain, Lake Murray) how to position and use their poles the way I was taught at a cross country ski clinic in Wyoming.
This lead me to discover why Nordic Walking felt so good. All because of a lower perceived exertion This had been explained to me by Fittrek. Even though you have increased your heart rate by engaging your whole body you feel as though it is easier. By using your arms to lift your weight off of your legs you will transfer some of the stress to other parts of your body building muscle and burning calories.

Tell your friends to check it out and come see for yourself.
I will let you use some of my poles and demonstrate how it works.
Come and learn how thousands are getting in shape just walking around the block.
This is a free course.

More Information about Nordic Walking

We will be using the base of Cowles Mountain to give some our Nordic walking Members a chance to really feel the power and added stability of using the Nordic Walking technique for climbing and descending hills. We will be there to see the mountain and to get some basic skills not necessarily to climb the mountain but to get out for the evening, get some exercise and develop our skills.
Some of us could get summit fever.
So come check it out.
Here is the Meetup location Cowles Mountain from Golfcrest Drive
I will bring several sets of poles that we can all use but I do have a limited amount.

Sorry it has been so long since my last meetup.

I will be at Presidio Park for aprox. 3 hrs. on Saturday March 14 starting at 9 am.
My plan is to be at the park so I can give everyone a one on one lesson on how to use the poles.
I do have poles for you to use.
I will take you for a short loop and show you the White Deer memorial and other points in the park. I will then let you practice on your own so I can help others and leave you to get into your own rhythm.
I will set up a station with water and information I will be at the station every hour so you can come see what's going on at 9 am, 10 am and 11 am I will be leaving the park around 12 pm.
It is a great park to explore and by adding different loops to your walk, you can get a good workout.

OK, now I feel inspired the feed back has been great. I know this has been a passion of mine but now I feel others will enjoy this exercise and get as much out of it as I do.
