mominthesun Posted February 23, 2009 #1 Share Posted February 23, 2009 To those of you who have been on the Westerdam: does anyone ever jog or run on the Westerdam, or is the promenade deck just for walking? Also, are there a lot of people using the promenade deck and do the gym facilities get crowded? I always start my cruises thinking that I am going to compensate for the extra food by keeping fit. Usually I end up in a chair relaxing and reading a book though. Maybe this tme.... Many thanks for all the useful information on this board.

jtl513 Posted February 23, 2009 #2 Share Posted February 23, 2009 On Vistas, running on the Prom is prohibited and jogging is discouraged but not outright banned. If someone complains about your jogging, the staff will ask you to go up to the Observation Deck (above the Lido) or to the treadmills in the Fitness Center.

mominthesun Posted February 23, 2009 Author #3 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Thanks for the information. I guess I will walk fast on the promenade deck and using the machines in the fitness center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone complains about your jogging, the staff will ask you to go up to the Observation Deck (above the Lido) or to the treadmills in the Fitness Center. I have seen several people jogging or running on the Observation Deck. And, the treadmills always seem to have room for one more. I also find taking the stairs instead of elevator helps a lot. I'm like you, and prefer a book so rarely visit the gym. However, I've never gained weight on a cruise. In fact, I lost 2 pounds last time. Wish I could say the same for my land-based vacations! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mominthesun Posted February 23, 2009 Author #5 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Thanks, I did not even think about the Observation deck. I need to look at the deck plans again. I'm sorry you had to cancel your Westerdam cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
