The beginnings!
A group of people met at the YMCA at St Annes under the "Walking for Health" scheme. Numbers rose and fell, but a hard core were determined to continue,albeit outside the direct control of the YMCA, A chap called Jim restructured the walks and changed the starting and finishing destinations. The group's regulars were in agreement with this. We have a schedule printed below. Turn up or leave a comment below, We WILL be in touch.
PS.If this sounds like serious training - it is not. The fastest we go is 3 miles an hour,the furthest ranges from 3 to 5 miles. We want to get a few more members to join our diverse lovely bunch!
Generally 1:15 pm from the start, finish about 2.30.Nearly always a cafe.
