I am looking to see if there are any other mom's who would like to meet up twice a week to walk off some excess weight. I thought that meeting at the Bangor Mall would be a great meeting place and it would give the children some thing to look at while we walk.
Our walking didnt work as well as we wanted it to. We met at the mall at 10am and planned to walk untill 11. Being so close to Christmas time, the mall was already very busy by then and with three mommys with strollers (two of us with double strollers) we took up a lot of room. It took us the whole hour to walk one mile! We had planned on walking at least two miles, but the children were very anxious to get out and ride on the rides. Also, they all decided that they were "starving" because of walking by the food. So all we heard the whole hour was "I'm hungry" or "I want to ride on the rides". Oh and of course they all HAD to use the bathroom. So we decided that we had fun that day, but this was not something that we wanted to do twice a week, every week. It was a lot of effort to only get in one mile of walking. If anyone can think of another close place to walk, with a lot of room, we would still be interested!
I would LOVE to go walking with you guys if you decide to do it again. I know of a couple of places over in Brewer when the weather gets nicer but for the time being (with cold weather coming) I don't know where people go to walk. Would anyone be willing to try the mall again now that the holidays are over?
I am interested in doing this as well. Just let me know what time.
I'm interested in this, around what time do you think you'd want to do it?
i would also be interested in this. I have MS so walking is good for me but also hard since i have to have other people around when i walk cause my legs have given out on me before a few times. so i usually dotn go unless my husband can go with me, but id love to see about walking with you cause well there would be other people around incase they did give out someone would be aroudn to help. ive been working on a diet and have lsot a bunch of weight already and this would be wonderful
