Mary first tried Nordic Walking after an ankle injury prevented her from running.
She believes that her background in competitive skiing and a lifetime’s experience of fell walking in the Lake District have benefitted her understanding of what is required from Nordic Walking.
She qualified as an INWA Nordic Walking Instructor with the British Nordic Walking Association in July 2014 and was awarded her Level 2 Certificate in Fitness Walking from the YMCA in December 2015. She is a member of the Register of Exercise Professionals.
She is first aid qualified and fully insured.
