Anyone from South West London around here?

Hi all!
Just wondering if anyone here was from London...mainly around the South West Wandsworth/Battersea/Clapham Junction area. And if so, is anyone keen to lose weight, and get fit together?

I moved to the UK last november, and am looking to find my new health-nuts group to hang out with. I really miss having workout buddies. And they say if you want to be awesome, then you have to surround yourself by awesome people who inspire you. Anyone fancy getting together to get amazing?

Kingston way here.

Come summer I'd be interested in hitting those "trim trails" around the area. If you beg enough, I might be encouraged to visit Wandsworth Common for some training. They've got dip bars, pull up bars, monkey bars etc. Good fun in summer!

DO they?! Good to know!

Yep. I use the one in Motspur Park which has inclined sit up benches, dip bars, pull up bars and other oddments.

That's a bugger of a commute!

It's not too bad. Bus to Wimbledon, Tram to East Croydon.

Sometimes get a little extra sleep too.

:laugh: Fair enough. How long does it take you?

M0TZO

1 hr 5 min on good day, to 1hr 20 mins+ if having a bad day.

I should explain that I used to live in Sutton and even moving to Kingston Journey is similar if a little longer in distance and about same time.

And if not sleeping I'm playing on web on iPhone.

Hi there, I just moved to Kingston! Been using MFP for about 2 years now! Love it! Anybody in Kingston?

I'm in Clapham so in your hood! I moved to the UK a few years ago (from Canada) joined a hiking club (Metropolitan Walkers) that is my group for fitness friends. I go on a 10 - 15 mile hike most weekends in London or using quick transport options from Clapham Junction.

If you want to know more send me a message. Also a member of the SW Bikram studios do that most mornings always happy to introduce people to this torture :happy:
