Retro Fitness Weekend Sat 14th - Sun 15th August

Do you often promise yourself and your friends to spend some quality time together and catch up? Do you know somebody who might be thinking about starting exercise but is unsure if they can cope?

12W Fitness is offering you and your friends the opportunity to catch up, get some huff and puff going with an introduction to fitness weekend and go back in time. Here's what's involved:

* The Melbourne/Sydney XPT train (with onboard buffet car) leaves Melbourne Southern Cross Station at 8.30am Saturday and travels for 4 hours to the border town of Culcairn approx 30 minutes north of Albury. Arrive at Culcairn at 12.20pm. Culcairn was the major mid point stop in the early 1900's for Melbourne/Sydney train trips. You have 4 hours of "catch up/relax time". You will stay the night at the historic Culcairn Hotel directly opposite the station. It is a classic old pub with balconies, beer garden and single and twin shares rooms. Firstly, book in at the pub to be followed by an afternoon introduction to fitness session involving reflexes, basic boxing and toning exercises. Spend the afternoon/evening relaxing on a town circuit walk and then onto the pub balcony followed by a meal at the pub bistro. (own cost)

* Sunday morning is a late morning "stairs and stretch" exercise session involving some huff and puff on the railway line stairs across the train tracks with a stretching session on mats followed by brunch at the public BBQ opposite the pub.

* The Culcairn Hotel has front and rear balconies, an upstairs residential lounge with tea/coffee making facilities, clean shared bathrooms with towels supplied, single and twin share rooms, outdoor gazebo/beer garden and outdoor garden area.

* Return train leaves Culcairn station at 2.55pm Sunday with 4 hours "catch up/relax time" to arrive Melbourne Southern Cross station at 6.55pm.

* The cost is $160.00 and includes Return train travel (economy), Saturday night accommodation and introduction to fitness sessions.

* You need to bring overnight bag/backpack and exercise gear. In the spirit of retro weekend "intro to fitness" computers are not allowed and mobile phones are switched off during the train journey. You also need to bring a new edition trash mag/gardening/fashion magazine to share on the journey.

* This is an expression of interest trip at a bonus introductory price and numbers are limited. If you are interested or know of anyone who you would like to invite, please contact John at 12W Fitness Tel: 0488 272 029
