Female Walker in my mid 50s based near South Shields looking for new friends to go walking with.

I am a Female Walker, in my mid 50s, based near South Shields

My Message: I'm currently trying to do the Wainwrights. I'm looking for someone who is keen to join me. I've just done 24 so lots still to do.
My knees hurt so I try and take the easy route down. I tend to walk at the weekends, although when I'm between contracts I will walk during the week.
I've just lost 4 stone so trying to build up my fitness. I do Zumba, Body Pump to boost my fitness. I'm also keen to do the Camino de Santiago.

My Preferred Walk Grades*: 1:2:3:4:5:6:7:

My Preferred Walk Areas:
North East England; North West England; Yorkshire;
(click each link to see other walkers wanting to walk there)

A bit more about me:

I can cope with a little bit of scrambling if it is short and there are no steep drops. I prefer warm, dry & sunny weather but can cope with the odd shower. I like walking with dogs but do not have one of my own. I'd say my map reading & navigation skills are pretty good. I can drive and have a car.

I am also interested in:

Peak Bagging - where the aim is to climb all the hills or mountains on a particular list such as 'bagging' all the Wainwrights or Munros;
Long Distance Path Walking - Multi-day walks like The Pennine Way, Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk;

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