Hey guys!

Was wondering it there was anyone here from Akron and the surrounding suburbs? I'm living there now and thought maybe we could do some sort of work out meet up sometime? Or just be supportive to fellow Akron-ites?

    Ha! Good thing I just happened to check in on this thread! XD

    Maybe if we get a few more responses we can think of something to do?

    Awesome! Maybe we can think of something to do before it starts to snow? Maybe like a hike somewhere or something? Thoughts? I have a membership to the Y, so if you guys do too, we could always doing something there as well, like a class.

    I also have a Y membership. Mine is through Stark county, but they do cross over. I'm not sure if I could hike or not because of my knee. I'd probably need to take my cane along, at least. There are plenty of nice paved trails and stuff along the towpath.

    I belong to the Nat in Cuyahoga Falls. I like the towpath hike idea, I have 2 different towpath parking areas within a couple miles of my house

    I used to go to water aerobics at the nat way back when before and shortly after the rebuilding of it. The towpath sounds like a good option then. It's probably the most centrally located between the two of you and it's not that much of a drive for me.

    Sounds like the Towpath would be good then! We should probably get it in soon before the weather gets much worse! Of course we can always bundle up and go walking. I don't know about you two, but weekends would be best for me.

    Hi ladies! I'm in Canton now, but I grew up in Akron. :smile:

    Welcome!. :) Truth is, I live right on the Stark county border so I'm not far from either.

    Weekends are best for me, but a bit tricky with my fall shows. But I'm sure we can figure something out.

    Well, we can meet at one of the Towpath Parking areas... how about next Saturday? The 10th? Maybe we could even find some place nearby to eat a healthy meal? Breakfast, lunch, whatever depending on what time works for everyone?

    I have a show both Saturday and Sunday next weekend. I am free the weekend of the 17th. Or, feel free to go without me and I'll catch up with you guys next time or in the Spring.

    The 17th would work just as well for me :)

    So, it looks like the 17th isn't going to work. :(

    Maybe we can revisit this when it's warmer?

    Yeah, either that or we all meet at a mall and chase each other from store to store for exercise. :laugh: Although, this time of year it would probably be more like a game of dodgem. :smile:
