Well Denise and I did the actual and real Nordic Walking. The rest of the fine bunch were the hardiest New England women there ever were.  We hiked (ahem Nordic Walked!!) about 8.62miles in pouring rain for about 4hours.  Yes, as hardy as they come. This was a vigorous hike led by our fearless leader Connie.  The rain was a very light shower which poured every now and then. It did not really faze anyone in the group. Two hours in, we stopped and ate our lunches, yes, in the rain. The rain brings an entirely different outlook to any hike. The contrasts between the wet and the dry is a sight to behold. Of course it is important to have good gear to keep oneself dry.

Oh and we had our very special friend Chandra (aka, the dashing lady with the yellow umbrella) join us for this Nordic Walking Adventure too. 

Anyways it was a enjoyable Nordic Walk for both Denise and I. For the curious that want to attempt this again here is the link to the trail...
