Any walking/running bandsters in Harford County?

Hi everyone. I'm looking for anyone that might be in the Harford County area that would be interested in getting together to walk/run together in the HC area. Strictly friends only, please. Happily married :biggrin2: The more the merrier.

I live in Forest Hill and would love to find someone to walk with. I am still quite overweight so running is not an option for me right now but any friendship / support I could find would be great (Happily married, too :smile2:) You can contact me at djw6171@comcast.net

Hi, are you guys still walking? I haven't had my band done yet but I'm working on it! I'm in Belcamp.

Lilith,

Let me know when you are available to walk. My daycare is in Belcamp so depending on schedules, would love to have a buddy to stick with.

I live in Edgewood. I was banded 3/25/08 and while doing my 6 month diet for insurance and waiting for approval I decided to bump up my exercise with walking. I asked around and was directed to Mariner Point park in Joppatowne, and I have become addicted to walking there. I am headed there in about ten minutes as my office is closing for Xmas Eve. There is a 2 mile nature trail, paved. I carry peanuts for the squirrels, and even befriended a chipmunk (I named him Chuckie) who is now hibernating, but the squirrels are still out. I don't walk for time, I walk for distance. I do anywhere from 2 to 4 times around the trail. How fast depends on how many squirrels I run into. I can't say enough about walking. I noticed a difference in how my clothes were fitting even before surgery and a significant weight loss. I have gone from 2x and women's 22 to medium tops and small to medium pants(about a size 10-12).

Right now I usually only go on weekends and holidays, as it is dark when I leave work at 530. I also go to Curves in Joppatowne and Water aerobics(Underwater Playground in Edgewood on Business Center Way off of Puliaski--MTTh 6pm). When daylight savings arrives I pass Joppa Farm Road on the way home so I walk almost every day, sometimes combining a stop at Curves.

If you are interested in meeting you can email me directly (work is the best place to reach me-I will get it Friday 12/26) at pchelton@midatlanticcardio.com.

Good luck with your journeys.
