what my readers are saying... "I just finished your excerpt. I write a lot of technical training manuals as part of my job, I would never have known you were a first time author. A very good read, I'll be purchasing one of your books." Don McNemar Atlanta, Georgia, USA. "It's a fabulous read: clear, succinct and engaging. I read 'The 10 Steps', went outside with my new poles and was Nordic Walking perfectly within 20 minutes. I'm able to get my heart rate up to 130-140 BPM versus 125-130 BPM when I used to run. Again, the book is terrific!" Howard Book, M.D. Toronto, Ontario, Canada. "David Downer has written a very readable book with clear instructions and illustrations on how and why to take up Nordic Walking. I find it to be the best Nordic Walking tutorial I have seen to date for how to do Nordic Walking." Wendy Bumgardner About.com Walking Guide http://walking.about.com "This is truly an inspiring compilation of mostly everything one should or could know about Nordic Walking." Blitz Murphy Harrison, Idaho, USA.
