Looking for someone to walk in the Yonge/St. Clair Area


Hi.
 Im looking for some training buddies in the Yonge and St Clair area.  I would like to set up a regular walk if there are people in the area that are interested. 

I was thinking Tuesday or Thursday evenings or maybe Sunday morning.  Please let me know if your interested. 

Liz

Hi Lucina and Liz
We did have a good walk, little cool but not too bad for March.
I won't be able to join you ladies this Sunday but I will be there on April 5th at 9:30am.
See you then.
Heather

Hi Lucina,
Did you mean Eglinton and Yonge? 

If you are at Bathurst and Eglington why don't we meet at Avenue and Eglinton?  I can walk up Avenue to Eglinton pretty quick and you can come over from Bathurst.  North east courner is good as well.  I know there are some nice pathways not far from there.  Does that work for you?

Hi Lucina,
9:30 works well for me.  It gives me a bit of a sleep in but I keep my morning.  But I can do later if you want. 

SO Just to clarify it's the Northeast courner of Avenue and and Eglington at 9:30?(unless you want to change the time)

See you Sunday,
Liz

OK If its rainy and cold we can skip it.  Do you want to post a message on Sunday if you know your not going to want to go?  I'll check before I leave at 9ish.  I hope its nice on Sunday but it's not looking good. 
Hopefully I will see you then,
 Liz

Good Morning Liz,

Heather and I are planning on meeting at Yonge/Bloor again on Sunday at 9:30. Will you be joining us? The more the merrier as they say. Weather is looking good so the walk should be a go. Perhaps we can arrange to meet elsewhere the next time. Have a great week.

Hi Lucina,
I will be there on Sunday and I may be bringing someone.  BTW I saw your call out for more walkers, I think that's great!  We can discuss it Sunday but if possible we should register the walk and coordinate so it's ongoing. (Like a regular drop in walk)

See youi bright and early Sunday.

Liz

Hi Liz, that is great. Looking forward to finally meeting you. You are right about registering the walk. I just have to find out how to do that. I am at a loss on this site at times. wink.gif See you Sunday.

Hi Lucina and Heather,  ( I hope you both are still checking back here often)

I hope you both had a good easter!  im looking forward to our walk on Sunday.  I was wondering if you guys would be intested in forming a volunteer training walk team.  I mean that we set up a regular Sunday walk starting at Yonge and Bloor every Sunday.  We could set up dates for the next couple of months an arrange between us that at least one of us will be around to lead the walk. 

I would be more than happy to do all the admin (arranging routes and confirming how many people to expect and such) so all you guys would have to do is confirm some days.  I can make most myself but it will be good to have back ups.  I also have another friend that will be able to help. 

So let me know if your interested and I will tell you dates I have in mind. 

Thanks,

Liz

Hi Liz and Heather,

This sounds like a great idea Liz. I am all for setting up a walking tour with others. The routes would have to be varied and get longer as the months progress to the big day. smile 

I am unfortuneately unavailable tomorrow. I forgot about a very important meeting I must attend. I had a message reminding me when I got home yesterday. I will be at our scheduled meeting point next Sunday same time as usual. Enjoy the walk. See you next week.

Hi,
OK sounds good for next Sunday.  Yonge and Bloor Again at 9:30 sounds great.  We can work out any details for organizing an official training walk. 

Sorry you couldn't come yesterday but you didn't miss anything.  I showed up and waited but I guess Heather had something come up. 

See you this Sunday,
Liz

Hi Liz,

Sorry you had to go downtown on Sunday to find we were both missing. I am still exhausted from my trip but should be okay for this coming Sunday. My meeting was important, as I had put it off the weekend before I left and had to get the information I needed for the meeting coming up next month.

I will definately see you Sunday unless it is pouring rain. I need to invest in rain clothes hahaha.

Also, I contacted Kristin also. Hope she can join us.

Take care and have a good week.

Hi Lucina and Liz
Hope you both had great vacations! Sorry I have been out of communication. I haven't been able to access the web-site for over a week, they just got me back on-line.
I am definitely up for walking this Sunday if you two are in. Sounds like it is going to be a great day.
Perhaps we should exchange phone numbers so that we can stay in touch a little easier.
Heather

Good Idea about the phone numbers. I have yours but you don't have mine. I will send it directly to your email addy at work. Looking forward to the walk on Sunday. I did a lot of walking the concrete beach while I was away. Wow, I would rather walk on the streets here than the hard sand there. HAHAHA

Hi Lucina  Glad to hear from you, looking forward to hearing about your holiday. See you Sunday. There may be another person joining in, he was posting the General Section so I let him know about our walk. I'll look for your email with contact info in it.
Heather

Hello Ladies,
It appears we have 4 definates and one maybe for Sunday.  Our little group is growing.  I followed all the lines of discussion in the different posts.  I think it's a great idea to exchange numbers.  My cell is 647 654 5687. 

About setting up a training walk on the website I was thinking about setting up the following dates:

May 10
May 31
June 14
June 21
June 28. 

I thought we could start with those.  I can do all the admin, route creation and RSVP stuff.  I just want to confirm that if Im hit by a bus (or more likely illness or other unexpected event)  you guys can cover by being there to lead the walk. 

Or should we keep up this ad hoc walk.  I just thought there are more people who look at the training walks page then the message board. 

What do you think?  We can also talk about it Sunday.  Im looking forward to seeing you Sunday and exchanging vacation stories. 

Liz

Hi Liz,

That list idea sounds great. You are right more people check the training walks than the message board. See you Sunday and in the meantime STAY AWAY FROM BUSES AND SUBWAYS. smile

Hi Liz
Your idea is a good one. I know there are a few Sundays that I won't be around over the next couple of months but we can certainly work out the details on Sunday.
Look forward to hearing about New York!
Heather
