We’ve got FIVE incredible co-hosts My First 5K and More, Running With Attitude, Run Laugh Eat Pie, Runs with Pugs, and me for another Fit Five Friday link-up!  This week’s topic is “5 things I want to accomplish this year.”  Feel free to write about this or any fitness topic you’d like.

There are many things I want to accomplish this year.  Who doesn’t?  But for this post, I will narrow it to 5.  It was hard but these are the ones that stand out.

⭐ Run/walk 2,024 miles – I didn’t making a running goal this year because the past 2 years I didn’t meet my goal.  Someone posted on Instagram how she ran and walked 2,023 miles last year and that sparked my interest.  I signed up.  What I like about this goal is that I can include both running and walking.  No way do I want to run 2,024 miles.

⭐ Move – I know I’ve been saying it for YEARS and YEARS (same song), but I am hoping 2024 is THE year.  However, I do admit that the thought of owning a home does scare me because of the big responsibilities that come with it.  I wonder if in a way that has been holding me back from purchasing a home.

⭐ Listen – I mean, really listen.  I have noticed that sometimes while listening to someone say something to me, I am already thinking of my response.  Sometimes I don’t let that person finish what they’re saying because I interrupt them with my response.  I know, very rude, and I need to stop doing that.

⭐ Eat my lunch in the teacher’s lounge – I eat lunch in my classroom at 12pm.  By that time I want to be alone.  I know that I need to get out of my classroom and talk to other adults.  I eat and do some work and I shouldn’t have to do that.

⭐ Learn to eat with chopsticks – Haha, you are probably laughing.  I don’t know why I find it “cool” to eat with chopsticks.  I don’t plan to eat everything with them, but at least when I eat Asian food.  I am one that asks for a fork when I go to an Asian restaurant.  I bought a set at Ross and my nephew told me to practice with popcorn.

The topic for next week – 5 things to never do in the gym.  Feel free to write about this or any fitness topic you’d like.  We hope you’ll link up with us!
