** Okay so those who want to join the walking/joggong/running get together ... come on in!
Hello All!
Glad there is some interest in this!
I figure Monday can be our first meet up!
I am planning on going Monday Night, Thursday Night, and Saturday mornings around 10 or 11.
I have not worked out in about 3 years ... rediculous I know! But I am motivated to start walking and hopefully begin to jog/run.
So if you would like to join ... the meetup will be at Wantagh High School Track.
If you can only come one day a week, still come! Everyones schedule is different but we will all do our best to show up! No pressure. If something comes up and you are a no show, its all good. The point is just to enjoy the nice weather and hopefully get more fit as time goes on!

After the 26th, I can do Mondays...as of now,I can do Thursdays only and weekends, we'll see since DH and I have been doing the gym together, but as you say, doing something different to shake things up is great! Earlier the better, too, is my feeling since we can have more time before dinner/sundown, etc.

Me- I am open and flexible - this monday I can't go b/c my car was recalled and it is getting fixed. Please keep me updated on this- when, time etc. I am a true beginner, this is the first time since I joined WW in Feb that I am motivated to walk/exercise. I live in N Bellmore. ( Down 16.4 pounds! )
My DH is thinking of joining us if that is okay - he is a teacher so he is pretty open in the evenings and Saturdays when his tutoring ends in a few weeks.Is it okay if he joins us? if not it is okay.

I'm not in the area, but I just wanted to make a suggestion.
If you do Mondays, you should all enter the NYS Parks Summer Series. There are runners/walkers of all abilities (people walk the whole race). They are in different state parks throughout the summer on Monday nights at 7. It's really a fun experience. People set up picnics, etc.

I think I can do any time after 6 but it depends on the day. I don't have a set work schedule so sometimes I work late, it's not very often though. Are we starting tomorrow?

I think this is a great idea, but want to offer some advice. This is spring athletics time, and if you go too early, the Wantagh HS teams will be out using the field/track. I used to run the track at Bay Shore HS and it was a real pain driving over there to find that the track/football field were being used and I'd have to turn around and go home.
There is a track meet at Wantagh HS tomorrow at 4:30. What time do you think it will be over?
Here's the HS athletics schedule: Wantagh HS Athletics

works for me. Dava brings up a good point. Do you think the 4:30 track meet will be over by then? I have no clue how long a track meet lasts. Also, where am I going? I'm not sure I know where the Wantagh HS track is.

All valid points! It may be over. My husband is a track coach and the times vary. Its worth a shot. If it is still being used we can stroll through the neighborhood and then talk about future meetup changes. Does that work?
Wantagh high school is on Jerusalem. Ill get the address for you soon.
