Introduction to the Association of Nordic Walking Clubs

The Association of Nordic Walking Clubs was formed to promote the sport by helping to establish more Nordic
Walking Groups throughout the USA, by helping to establish Nordic Walking divisions in 5K, 10K, Half and Full
Marathon events and by provideing the resources for Nordic Walkers training for these events. The Portland
Marathon has just opened a Nordic Walking Division. Our members have Nordic Walked the ING Miami
Marathon/Half Marathon for 4 years since its inception for 2003.
