Team Hikes
At Studio NRF our favourite thing to do is to build on our already incredible community. We do this in many ways, from our daily spicy workouts and constant high vibes, to the many different events that we do all year round.
One of our favourite events to do is team hikes! We have done two fabulous walks so far and we already cannot wait for our next one, although I am sure that anyone that joined us for Mam Tor is already praying for better weather!!
In April 2024 we headed to Snowdonia, taking 50 women successfully to the summit of Mount Snowdon. The atmosphere was fabulous from start to finish and I am SO proud of every single woman that took part. It was such a huge accomplishment.
We departed early at 6am from Studio NRF and headed down south on a coach. There was chatter, nap times and snacks galore throughout the journey. When we arrived, everyone set off together but with the instruction that everyone was to go at their own pace, support one another and that it didn’t matter how long it took. The aim was to finish the walk and successfully reach the summit – and they did it!! All 50 of them!
The weather was absolutely beautiful and we were blessed with a completely clear day with gorgeous views in every direction. Glorious sunshine meant we were stripping off the many layers on the way up and then very quickly putting them back on the closer to the top that we got. It was VERY cold at the trig point!!
All in all this walk was a HUGE success and it set us up for team hikes being a popular addition to our annual calendar.
In October 2024, it was time for our second walk to commence. This time we headed to Mam Tor, and as expected you won’t always be as lucky twice in a row.
We had increased in numbers, to a total of 60 women (on a double decker coach!), but decreased in glorious weather luck. However, despite the heavens opening and being the wettest we had ever been, everyone took it in their stride and smashed it.
We battled through the weather conditions and reached the trig point successfully.. With only the odd walking boot as casualties. As we made our way back down and towards the coach, the weather started to ease slightly, and everyone made it back to the coach for a change of clothes and a scrumptious hot choccy! Very much needed and very much worth the walk.
We drove home, towards the sunshine, very damp but in super high spirits as always and I know I speak on behalf of everyone when I say we already cannot wait for the next one.
Our next walk will happen in early springtime 2025 and we would love your suggestions for our next destination!
