This week’s Tuesday Topic: My six favorites of 2022. You can write about this or post any running-related blog post. Remember to link up with Kim and Zenaida! Visit at least two of the other linked posts – the more the merrier! Remember to come back for later linkers!
2022 was quite a year! It meant back to the classroom with students and going to work in a new school. There were also some wonderful things that took place. Here are some of my favorites.
Favorite Day: My birthday! I turned 50 and am still fifty and fabulous. 😊 I wasn’t going to do anything to celebrate but then I decided why not. I will not turn 50 again.
Favorite race atmosphere: I didn’t run the Chicago Marathon but I had so much fun being a spectator. Ha, it is much more fun than running it.
Favorite Cat Photo: Between my two cats, I don’t have a favorite. I love them both. Lola is definitely more cuddly and follows me around like a kid. Mateo is the one in the picture. It was sometime last year that he began sleeping next to me. This was during one of my naps and he got comfortable with me. ❤️ ❤️
Favorite Race: I ran two races, Shamrock Shuffle 8k and 4 on the 4th of July, and I loved both of them. I hadn’t run a race since February 2020.
Favorite Purchase: My Noxgear lamp! It is bright and I love it. The left photo is high, the middle is low, and the right is no light.
Favorite Book: I didn’t keep track of all of the books I read but “Mary Jane” is one of my favorites. It is funny and somehow gave me a good feeling while reading it. I loved Mary Jane but loved Izzy even more. She is an adorable little girl. Now I am using Goodreads to keep track of the books I read.
Next week is a FREE topic. Feel free to write about any running-related topic. We hope you’ll link up with us!
I love your photos of the elite runners of the Chicago Marathon. They look so powerful and strong. I agree, it’s nearly more fun to watch than to participate, ha!
Nice that you could do 2 races last year. Will you do the Shamrock Shuffle again?
Yes I am and am excited about it.
Those are all fun things. Hope 2023 is even better.
Me too!
I have wondered about the Noxgear lamp. I have the vest (the original, not the rechargeable one), and it definitely sees a lot of action!
It is a great product and I am glad I bought it.
Happy birthday! I’m so glad you did celebrate because of course you only turn 50 once!
Mateo looks like a tiny bean. He’s so little!!
Thank you. Ha, he looks little in that photo and he has grown so much.
I love the cat photo – so cute!
The best!
It is fun to spectate at big races sometimes. Hope the rest of your year brings lots of favorites
Thanks, Deborah.
These are all so fun! I love your snuggly kitty. And that lamp is SO BRIGHT! What a find!
It is a great product!
