Topic: Westie Walkers Posted: 12 October 2009 at 8:04pm |
A couple of us have decided its time to get rid of our Mummy tummies and get fitter so we can run around after our toddlers without turning bright red
We are going to meet to go walking on a Tuesday and Thursday afternoon at 3pm (Tuesdays leaving from Henderson and Thursdays leaving from Massey).
The plan is to either meet at a park, go for a walk and end at the park so the kids can have a run around, or ensure the route has a park near the end of the loop so the kids can also burn off some steam.
Hopefully with a "group" it will be easier for some of us to get up and get outside!
Feel free to join us .. we would love to see you, just pm me for more details.
First walk starts this week (tomorrow). PM me if you want more details, its a great way to meet more Mums in your area!

I was going to say yes, me! But I'm a little bit worried I might melt in the rain  (yes, I'm a big wimp!). I'll see how it is a bit closer to the time, but I can make Thursday this week, if you are planning to meet then also?

Oh and in regard to the Summerland walk, they have closed off the track near the railway, so you can no longer do a loop.

How's your knee doing LF? I'm guessing you won't be up for a walk today? Alex? The weather's looking okish atm, so I'll try and make it this arvo. Same meeting place at the stadium? 2.45-3pmish?
