Harrogate women launch walking group for singletons

"Your Pace or Mine" is a new walking group for single people aged 40 and above in North Yorkshire.

Harrogate women launch walking group for singletons Two Harrogate women have launched a new walking group for singletons in the local area. "Your Pace or Mine" is a new group for single people aged 40 and above in North Yorkshire, created by Harrogate women Jane Illman and Caz Walker. The aim is to provide a “platform for individuals to connect, explore, and build meaningful relationships” while enjoying the beauty of Harrogate and the surrounding areas. The inaugural event will be on Saturday (10th February) walking from Harrogate to Ripley Cycleway. This walk will serve as an opportunity for individuals to get to know each other and share their enthusiasm for walking. Jane Illman said:

“Life changed after Covid, the majority of us can work from home, we shop online and we can even exercise online. If you're single that can become a lonely way of life. “We are thrilled to launch 'Your Pace or Mine' and provide a unique platform for single individuals in North Yorkshire to connect through the shared love of walking. “We aim to create a warm and welcoming environment where members can form genuine connections, enjoy the beauty of our surroundings, and create lasting memories.”
The walking group will initially operate monthly, with different routes and locations chosen for each walk. The group aims to accommodate participants of all fitness levels, ensuring that everyone can participate and enjoy the experience at their own pace.
