Become a Nordic Walking Leader
Grab the Poles. Lead the Way. Inspire Others.
Love being outdoors, meeting people and helping others feel good? Become a Runspire Nordic Walking Leader and help create welcoming walks filled with movement, conversation, confidence and plenty of smiles.
It’s not about being the fastest or walking the furthest. It’s about helping everyone enjoy the session at their level, with no pressure and no one left behind.

What You’ll Do:
- 👋 Give everyone a warm welcome and help them feel part of the group.
- 🥢 Lead approved Nordic walks following the agreed session plan.
- 💙 Encourage and motivate people of different abilities and confidence levels.
- 🤝 Work alongside our Nordic Walking Buddies to keep everyone included and supported.
- 👀 Look after the group, keeping an eye on wellbeing, terrain, weather and safe spacing.
- 😊 Bring the Runspire spirit and make sessions fun, social and somewhere people want to return to.
Nordic Walking Leaders work within an agreed scope, reinforcing established techniques while referring new or more complex technical instruction to a qualified Nordic Walking Instructor.
