Dee, LOL I am amazed you work with several people from Douglass considering it is such a tiny town. Like 2000.

Pretty rare I venture in to Wichita. My husband does daily for work but I am a SAHM so not much reason to leave except for a weekend trip to Derby to grocery shop. If I could find a work out buddy here it would be too awesome but will not hold my breath. Hubby stopped when it got cold. OK, so did I, hee hee.

We own a house down by Lincoln and Rock but we live on 29th between Rock and Woodlawn

I am not currently a member of the YMCA because I work at WSU I get discounted fitness access to Heskett Center, but it might be something to look into

Do you have someone to be accountable to for an exercise regiment? I used to teach part time at WSU, but since I am working toooo much overtime at Spirit, I gave up teaching. I can't even think of any of my friends who still teach... kinda sad isn't it!

Dee

No but that would be great.. I am just starting again, its going slowly.. I dont think I am completely committed right now, but I want to be.

No I don't have a partner. I do have a treadmill and a total gym that rarely get used. Mostly I do tia chi every morning and then I charge up the mp3 players, grab some leashes, and my two daughters and we walk the dogs 4 or 5 times a week. My 11 year old loves it but my 7 year old complains the whole time! But when it gets real windy and cold (Kansas has the coldest wind Brrrrrrrr), I use the treadmill when the weather is bad. I have noticed the weight comes off quicker and I feel better if I add resistance like weights or total gym to my weekly workouts, but get lazy and don't do it!

You all are making me homesick! I grew up east of Wellington in a small town. When I got married, my husband and I lived in the apartments at Rock Road and ...Edgewood, Edgemoor? Geez, never thought I'd forget! It was the Conquistador apts. at that time. Then we bought a small house two blocks east of Southeast High School on Pineridge. We moved to Nebraska 18 years ago but I'm still a Kansan!
I went to WSU and worked in one of the offices there. I loved the Heskett Center, spent a lot of hours there.

I have a nephew that works at Spirit.

My hometown competed with Douglas in sports, music, etc.

I still have family in the Wellington thru Winfield areas. I'm really homesick now!

I'm new here.
I hope I can do this.
It's nice to know that there's this place to visit and get motivated(This site)!!
