I love amusement parks still ,,,... !
Just went the other day to Six Flags Magic Mountain to celebrate
'' 50 I don't know where they went '' years.
Yet I'm starting to look 65 sometimes but i carry a 23 y.o. spirit.

I was wondering if there are any old timers like me who use Roller Coaster parks for long walking workouts.

It's not all fun and games sometimes when you go from one end to the other and back again,,,
The hills and stairs make it a real calorie burner.

I have noticed since i started going regularly, my endurance can match younger adults and my heart can handle the G forces so far..... If i had any blood clots,,,,.... There gone now and i thank my local Six Flags for that.

Hoping to find a few other friends who log exercise workouts at other amusement parks.

    I go to the zoo regularly. It has gentle hills and if I see all the animal exhibits, it's 3.5 miles in a safe wooded beautiful setting. No roller coaster parks nearby, but I used to have a season's pass at Kings Island every summer! BEAST. :)

    Hi cmriverside, the Zoo is a great place as well.
    I'm saving that for when i turn the big 60 .... lol
    ... a few other friends do the same thing at the L.A. Zoo,
    They say they go there to visit relatives ;) ... lol

    Nice and gentle is how they like it ,

    I go for the hills & thrills while Laugh'in and holla'in on the coasters,
    ,,, it's a fun way to really get the lungs opened up just before the next hike to another ride.

    My pal from Pennsylvania says Good things about Kings's Island...
    I think i might be saving up next year for a trip to cedar park,
    which is just a hop , skip , and jump to King's Island from there....
    I'll remember the beast when i get there ... Thanks.
