I'm not sure if many of you have heard of this, but last year a friend of mine and I did it and had a blast! Tropicanoe Cove has times throughout the week, usually in the early morning or late evening, where you can water walk. It is so much fun!! :) The pool is closed to the public and you walk the lazy river! I know...your probably thinking how much fun can that be? Seriously, its alot of fun! It gives a change of pace from your exercise routine and its easy on your body(or knees). I will tell you that I didn't think it would much of a workout. Seriously how hard can it really be to walk in water for 45 minutes? Man was I wrong! The kicker is trying to turn around and walk against the current...YEAH, what a workout! :)
Its $2 to do it, which is I think is pretty reasonable or you can buy a pass for the summer. I'm not sure how much that it, but I'm sure its on the website or I can look it up if anyone is interested.
We are thinking of going tonight so if anyone would like to join us it would be a blast! Or if anyone wants to go another day just let me know! I hope thats ok Becky that I just invited everyone!! :)
OK..so I'm off to do the dreaded bathing suit shopping! Yuck! Wish me luck! :)
Edit: These are the times that they offer the water walking. I will definitely be there tonight (if anyone wants to join with my short notice) and if anyone has another day that would work for them just let me know!
Monday - Friday 7:00-8:00am & 8:00-9:00am
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday 7:15-8:00pm

E-mail me with more info! What time does it start? Sarah and I might come do it with you!! If not tonight, I'd definitely be interested another night! (I need to check with my OB, but I'm pretty sure this would perfect exercise for a preggo!)
You know I dont mind. I really is fun. I am not upto turning around and going against the current just yet though
Wow! That sounds like a blast! Great idea. I would love to join you all. :)
I have heard of water walking before, I didn't realize the local pool offered times for just that! I have did a version of it own my own before, keep me informed when your going. I'll admit I don't want to go by myself, but I would like to go a few times this summer!
How funny-I was just looking at this today online!!! Did you also read about workreation for the boys? I would like to go in the evenings when you go and I can go-FUN!
Hmm...I really have never heard of this before. If you could send out an e-mail to those interested in advance of when you might be going, that would be great! However, I gather that this means I must wear a bathing suit, shoot.me.now! Sounds fun, but um, we'll see for me :-)
