Welcome to the September edition of the Ultimate Coffee Date hosted by Coco and Deborah. It’s also time for another edition of Fit Five Friday hosted by My First 5K and More, Running with Attitude, Run Laugh Eat Pie, Runs with Pugs, and me!
Now, grab a mug of your favorite beverage, and let’s chat briefly!
If we were having coffee…
I’d tell you that I do not like how dark it is in the morning. I know I’ve mentioned how I enjoy running in the dark, but I am not running anymore. Well, at least not like before. I want some sunshine. It is 5:30am right now and it is still dark outside.

If we were having coffee…
I’d tell you that these weeks have flown by. Progress grades are due next week. How? I am still working through some kinks with my students. It is stressing me out that I need to enter these grades for school. I am also very tired.
If we were having coffee…
I’d tell you that even though I will not my meet my goal of running/walking 2,024 miles this year, I signed up again for next year. Crazy? I need a goal or some motivation. Marathons are out of the equation but I want to focus on half marathons. Next year I am running the Fargo Half Marathon in South Dakota and need a few more states to run in.
If we were having coffee…
I’d tell you that I may not be running everyday, but I have been either walking or running or BOTH since June 28th. I may have “cheated” a few times in logging in a quarter mile or even less, but it is still a walk. It counts!
If we were having coffee…
I’d ask you if you saw the video of when my school was featured on TV. I wasn’t planning to be at school that early (7am) but am glad I made it happen. I am on the left side next to a woman with a pink shirt. You can see me for a few seconds because then I moved to the front to take a picture.
The topic for next week’s Fit Fit Friday – 5 things you’ll never do as a runner. Feel free to write about this or any fitness topic you’d like. We hope you’ll link up with us!
