Hastings walking buddy wanted

HastingsGirl — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 19:29:00 +1300

Hi, any Hawkes Bay girls wanting to get together to walk the Te Mata peak (or anywhere else around Hastings & Havelock North). I want a walking buddy . 47yrs old female. No kids or hubby at home and can walk during and outside of normal working hours. Wanting to loose weight and get fit. Average speed walker. If some-one is faster than me I would like to be pushed to go faster. If some-one is slower than me I could do loops (race ahead and double back to walk together awhile then race ahead a bit and so on). I am 5ft 10 so have biggish stride.

Buddy wanted for city or east auckland -

SeekingSqueak — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 01:12:00 +1300

Hi I'm just starting to get fit and would love someone to join the challenge!

Dogs..prams...or couch potatoes – all welcome!

My main motivation is to lose weight (and there are a few kilos of that!) so would be keen on some beginner stuff, new sports maybe and some walking or trekking!

I've also got my eye on a few walk events coming up – about 5 – 10 km.

I live in the central city (pretty much Queen St) but spend a lot of time in Howick / Pakuranga area and am very flexible with time.

I'm 30, female, easygoing and friendly but don't enjoy walking up too many big hills lol...

I'd love to do some running in a few months when I've lost weight and got my fitness up too!

Please get in touch if you want to lose weight and/or get fit too!

Go on – just do it!

Walking Buddy close to Ellerslie, Auckland

meeks123 — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 06:57:00 +1300

Hi there, I'm looking for a walking buddy/friend close to Ellerslie, Auckland. I'm a 38 year old mum with a toddler, so would enjoy going pram walking with another mum any day or time of week. If you aren't a mum, that's obviously fine, I would also enjoy walking without my toddler for some timeout/mumtime, but can only do this on Wednesdays (anytime), very early Thursday mornings (finish before 9am), Fridays (9am-5pm), Saturdays (anytime) and Sundays (anytime. I love walking and can walk for miles and miles, I'm a good motivator but at the same time, at the moment I probably need someone to help me get motivated. I have really let my fitness and body go a bit and want to change. I am very dedicated to this. It would be great to do some long (at least an hour) power walks, hopefully everday, and perhaps every now and then finish up with and treat ourselves to a cup of tea/coffee. I hope to here from someone. Thanks.

Walking Buddy - Onehunga/Cornwall Park

kelhuntley — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 13:26:00 +1300

Hi everyone,

I just joined your great website today! I'm on the look-out for a walking buddy in the Onehunga/Cornwall Park area.

I'm 28 and live/work in Onehunga. I can comfortably run 3.5-5kms, but have a reoccurring injury that keeps flaring up, so am thinking I need to give the running a rest and perhaps try walking instead!

So, if anyone lives around this area – and is keen to go for walks either early morning, after 5pm or in the weekends, let me know!

Seeking North Shore Walking Mums and Buddies

taggie — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 13:53:00 +1200

Coffee groups are great but I'd rather be walking with a takeaway cup!

Seeking like-minded walking buddies keen to explore the North Shore area during weekdays or school hours. I am a Mum who has recently moved to the shore and am keen to explore it especially now the weathers improving.

Feel free to drop me a line if you are keen to join me or have some good walking tracks/routes to suggest in the Birkenhead/Beachhaven areas.

Hopefully we'll soon have a group that can combine the joys of coffee and walks!

Walking dogs in Titirangi

Huffinpuff — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 16:25:00 +1200

Hi. I wonder if there is anyone else around my age (early 50s) who would occasionally like to join me and my dogs for weekend walks in the Titirangi area. We walk during the week, but really early in the morning, so Saturday and Sundays are when we walk a bit further and take more time to "smell the flowers" so to speak. I know there is a Titirangi walking group, but they look all a bit too organised and determined to me, and don't appear to have any 4 legged friends involved.
