About Carol
I am passionate about outdoor adventure and how this can help people live healthier, wilder and more authentic lives.
An avid fellwalker, climber and caver from an early age, I left my successful corporate career to pursue my love of exploring . I’ve subsequently done many things, including becoming a yachtmaster and sailing my boat on a five year trip to and around the Med, cycling from Swindon to the South of France, a training in arts-based therapy and education, and studying eastern approaches to mindfulness and wellbeing. I’m now back in the North West of England amongst the hills and fells which are my spiritual home.
I love Nordic walking - over recent years, its helped me on a personal level to restore my self confidence, get fitter and lose (lots!) of weight. Its even got me fit enough, even in my early 60s, to start fellrunning and compete in Nordic and fell challenge races . It’s a fantastic all round exercise, and gets me out into the great outdoors every day.
I love to share my passion for Nordic walking and outdoor adventure with others, so If you are in the Lancashire/Western Yorkshire Dales/Cumbria area, check out Walkwild and our programme of activities.
Exercise isn’t just for the young- just the young at heart.
