Local author Jo Moseley Jo went from ‘crying in the biscuit aisle of Tesco’ (we’ve all been there) to becoming the first woman to paddleboard 162 miles coast to coast aged 54, fundraising and picking up litter. Jo found joy, adventure, and a fresh start in nature.
In 2022, aged 57, her childhood dream came true when her first book 
Stand Up Paddleboarding in Great Britain
 was published and went on to become a bestseller. Her second book
 Stand Up Paddleboarding in the Lake District
 won the Lakeland Book Awards Zeffirellis Guides & Places Award 2025.
Find out about the joy of ageing well, Jo’s third book, and what she is up to next with fellow author, Sara Barnes. Living in the Lake District, the outdoors inspires much of Sara’s writing, including 
The Cold Fix
 which discovers strength from cold water swimming, and her novel about three menopausal wild swimmers, 
The Winter of Our Lives
.
Turning 60 is never too old to start something new. The pair will inspire you to be older, bolder, and colder.
