New Nordic Walkers Hit the Trail
I am happy to report that over this past summer Nordic Walking Iowa has taught pretty close to 100 participants to Nordic Walk in classes at the Body Wisdom Massage School, Meredith Corporation, various Women’s and Men’s groups, Weight Watchers, the Sports and Fitness Expo and other locations both here in the Des Moines area and in Northern Iowa.
Community Nordic Walks
There is a strong desire on the part of many participants to organize group Nordic Walks and I have a couple scheduled for November and December thinking Brown’s Woods (The largest urban forest preserve in Iowa, covering 484 acres of woodland – including rolling hills and small streams – and offers more than two miles of moderate hiking and cross country ski trails) and Raccoon River Park as possibilities.

Happy Nordic Walking Trails …
