mrsh2006 Posted July 11, 2011 #1 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Hello all, well only 102 days til our first ever cruise (not that i am counting!) and i cant wait! I can remember reading a thread or a review a while ago and the person mentioned how many times you have to walk around the Spirit to make a mile, but i can't remember how many. Does anybody know? We arent one's for the gym but like to keep fit by walking, so a morning/evening walk around the ship will be nice. Thanks for any replies xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topsey130 Posted July 11, 2011 #3 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Hi How busy does the gym get? and also would the promenade deck be too busy to run round early morning to get my runs in! Hi - Mrsh2006 we are on the same cruise as you and our first time:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenny wren Posted July 11, 2011 #4 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Just a word of caution...some ships don't like early morning joggers on the promenade as it wakes up the passengers with cabins underneath !! so might be worth checking first....:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always try to do 10 laps around the deck = 2 miles, that way don't feel too guilty about drinking & eating :) It's a lovely start to the morning, watching the ship come to life, the sunrise and enjoying the peace & quiet before it gets too busy! There were people jogging around too!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi - Mrsh2006 we are on the same cruise as you and our first time:D Hi, I don't think it got that busy, although didn't really spend much time that way. Running isn't aloud around the deck, but is fairly quiet til about 7.30ish Hope this helps:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
