The secret is out! Even world famous Dr Michael Mosley is convinced, and spreading the word, about what an awesome and supremely effective and superior activity Nordic Walking is! It's his latest "Just One Thing"

This is a really good summary - including some solid research - on the how and why Nordic Walking is simply amazing on so many levels. Spread the word - forward it on!

The only important piece of information about Nordic Walking that Dr Mosley misses is the absolute importance of learning the correct technique from a qualified and experienced Nordic Walking Instructor.

Nordic Walking is considerably more technical than people appreciate - it's a bit like golf that way - looks straightforward and simple when you see people doing it well - but there is a lot more to it than meets the eye.

Learning the correct technique and practicing regularly means you will enjoy and marvel at the many benefits and have fun while doing so! Doing it incorrectly or badly will likely mean you don't enjoy it, won't experience the benefits - and worst case - you could injure yourself.......

The fabulous, very experienced, highly qualified instructors at Capital Nordic Walking are ready to introduce you to this brilliant activity - we have taught well over 3,000 people to Nordic Walk - of all ages and fitness levels - including the super fit and people with health challenges and disabilities including arthritis, Parkinson's, MS, back and neck pain etc.

Nordic Walking makes it so much easier to walk well, further and faster, feel secure and stable, way less load and strain on feet, legs, lower back, improve your posture, and get a total body work out - using over 90% of the body's muscles, compared to only 45-50% when walking without Nordic Walking poles, jogging, running and cycling.

How adding poles to your walk can burn more calories and boost your heart health!

Since the first event in 2009, Coastrek has transformed millions of lives globally. More than 70,000 trekkers have trained and completed Coastrek with friends, improving their own health and wellbeing and raising over $48 million for our charity partners; The Fred Hollows Foundation (2009-2018), Beyond Blue (2018-2022) and from 2023, the Heart Foundation.

Research shows that women are much less likely to undergo treatment for heart attack or angina (chest pain) in hospital compared to men. Heart disease in Australian women is currently under-recognised, under-diagnosed and under-researched. Funds raised in Coastrek will go towards turning this shocking situation around.

We would love to see Canberra’s Nordic Walkers (and others who haven’t yet caught on to the many wonders of Nordic Walking!) take the challenge of joining friends to trek around the lake for fun, fitness, friends and fundraising, all in support of the Heart Foundation.

You can choose between a 30km adventure, or a Twilight 20km that will see your team crossing the finish line at dusk.

The event will start and end at Lennox Gardens on Friday the 15th of March.

Doubly proud that our fabulous, and much loved, CNW Volunteer Coordinators, Jan Lee and Dave Drain, were also recognised - Highly Commended in the ACT Volunteer Manager of the year awards! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Here’s our amazeballs Volunteer Development Guru, Lynn Bloomfield, presenting the award on a gorgeously sunny morning at the botanic gardens.

To note - that while we originally intended to nominate both Dave and Jan for their dedication to coordinating all the volunteers and leading the Tuesday and Thursday walks. Dave’s preference was to focus on just one person (who wasn’t him!) and as a result the certificate and award is in Jan’s name. But we all know that it’s a joint effort, and our thanks and congratulations go to both 🎉🥳💕
