Female Walker in my late 40s based near Chester looking for new friends to go walking with.

I am a Female Walker, in my late 40s, based near Chester

My Message: I've always loved walking but running became my sport for a large part of my life. Due to injury a couple of years ago, I'm now back walking as my main source of fitness.
I work full time during the week but try to do about an hour or two of walking most days, and I enjoy the occasional longer walk at the weekends. I'm hoping to meet someone to share my walks with, whether that be for a local evening stroll or a weekend walk up Snowdon. I borrow my friends' dogs as company on many an occasion, but having someone I can have a conversation and a bit of a laugh with is much more preferable. I've also done a bit of geo-caching, which is much more fun with the right companion. Most recently, I've walked the Maelor Way (a section at a time) and I'm part way through the Sandstone Trail. The highest mountain I've climbed is probably Tryfan. The company is more important than the challenge these days. I do have friends I can drag along, but it often involves being the third wheel... I should mention I have been told on many occasions that I walk quite fast!

My Preferred Walk Grades*: 1:2:3:4:5:

My Preferred Walk Areas:
North West England; Wales;

A bit more about me:

When it comes to Scrambling & Edges I'm OK with the occasional edge or scramble but don't go looking for it. With regard to the weather, this is the UK so it's going to rain sooner or later isn't it? Fine with me, I've got waterproofs. I'm not bothered about dogs one way or the other. I'd say my map reading & navigation skills are pretty good. I can drive and have a car.

I am also interested in:

Camping on Campsites - Camping where there is a shop, toilets, showers & possibly a pub;
Wild Camping - Camping out in the wilds well away from anyone & any facilities;
Long Distance Path Walking - Multi-day walks like The Pennine Way, Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk;
Mountain Biking

I am not actively looking for anyone other than a new walking companion but if that right person came along . . .
