My Reno friend reminded me yesterday that back last spring I had been really interested in Nordic walking poles. I watched a section of Country File (BBC programme on Sunday mornings...my favorite!) which talked about the sport and gave you some advice for starting. I'm not well enough at the moment but as soon as I am I'm going to buy some sticks and get going. Surrey (the county I live in) offer some inexpensive beginner classes. If you are interested in learning more, click here.
Today has been difficult and a little demoralizing. How easily one forgets the past! If I had been on the more toxic of my two drugs, I would have been in a great deal of pain right now instead of just feeling sick and being very tired. I should be grateful for this but instead, I've simply forgotten all about it. I suppose it's this same amnesia that allows mothers to suffer the pains of childbirth and then have another.
I'm hoping to go in to work tomorrow but I think that I'll tell them that I won't start till 11.

Thanks again for the link to the Nordic Poling site. I need to do more research about Nordic Poling here but so far, I haven't found many references to it.
Seems lke it should be more popular here. The Nordic track from the Squaw Valley Olympics (1964?) is being "retored" and there is an international level Nordi skiing centre up the mountain. Nordic Poling is probably coming soon. Thanks for putting me ahead of the curve.
