Nordic Walking




This has been one of my favourite activities to date, it was so fun to learn this new skill and the physical benefits were many (great sport for after Xmas):

Talking of walking, I have just returned home after walking in the Sierra de Espuna for 5 hours! Great scenery, great company, great leader - great day! More will follow once I have wallowed in a hot bath :)

Inverted Crucifix & Superman



What do the funny words in this title mean? ...... They are the pole dance moves that I did for the 1st time last night. So, so cool. I have some funky bruises on my feet and inner thighs but they are worth it!!!!! Got to start taking more photo's.
On the down side, I got home last night and while standing having a drink with friends, my knee popped out (old injury). So no dog walking tomorrow for S.A.T.S who I volunteer with :(



On the upside this means I can concentrate on my article deadline (about Nordic walking), do some course work and shoot some photo's for next Tuesdays digital camera club.
We have poo weather again, but that hasn't stopped Richard going shooting, glad he's forming his own hobby, gutted I can't play on my pole while he's out!
Anyway, here's to a fab weekend with some fab friends that are over from the UK - enjoy folks!

Hola all!
This is a good one, about clay pigeon shooting just inland from Alicante:

I'm back in my writing flow after the craziness over the festive season. Spring is looking good with a variety of visits coming up including: mountain and country walking, kayak safari's, bodega visits, nordic walking and of course my favourite - more pole dancing - yippeeee!

Have a good weekend folks!

I Love Nordic Walking!



Hello folks
I had to write as I am in love with Nordic walking. I will be writing an article about this fantastic activity and will post the link on when it gets published in a couple of weeks but I had to share some really good news....... I have managed to shed a total of 10.5 inches from my previous body measurements - in 2 weeks! The most notable difference is round my waist, belly and hips. I haven't been as careful with food and have even been having a sneaky drink during the week!
So if you want better stamina, an activity that is kind to your body and has quick toning affects, look no further!
