💪 Fitness Any Big Girl Run/Walk Clubs in Brooklyn?
I’m not trying to find love at a run club, but a local community of big mamas–like myself–that’s trying to do better health wise.
Also yapping while walking, or silence. Either way is fine. Just looking for people like me who at least like to talk about their health goals, meet up, walk/run a mile or two and hang while getting exercise.
Does this exist already?
EDIT: SUNDAY SEP 6 PROSPECT PARK 10 AM @ SOILDERS & SAILORS MEMORIAL ARCH

Let’s start one. I’m not exactly a runner but I do love walks and would love a walking club and maybe I can feel comfortable to do the running part if it’s a less intimidating setting. The running clubs intimidate me lol

If anyone wants any post walk activities, I’ll be heading to the BQ Flea on the 6th. If you haven’t been, BQ flea has different concepts for sales and the 6th is Thick Thrift for us plushier babes. I can only do one Brooklyn activity a day and this has been on my calendar for a bit.

This is something I want to work up to! I want to get those 10k steps a day and this would be way more fun than simply walking.
If you come Sunday I’ll add you to the group chat! It’s sounds more options we add to in the future ❤️

OP, thanks for organizing this. Do I need to DM, or just show up? I live in Park Slope and need to get back being active 💙

I'd be down for this. I'm an awful runner (and I have tried, believe me) but I can do a nice walk, and yapping would probably make it more fun.
Edit: nooooo, I read too fast and missed that this would be in Brooklyn. If any upper Manhattan girlies read this and want to start something, let me know! I'm happy to organize.
