It’s the first weekend of the month so I’m having some virtual coffee. I‘m linking up with Coco @ Running with Perseverance and Deborah @ Confessions of a Mother Runner for the Ultimate Coffee Date.
What is the Ultimate Coffee Date? Imagine we are having coffee together… this post is what I would tell you. So grab a cup, “listen” and then tell me what is going on with you in the comments, please!
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that I’m SUPER excited to run my 22nd NYC Marathon this weekend! I’ve been smiling since we got here. If you’re running or know anyone who is, I’d tell you to check out my NYC Marathon tips here and my post for runners and spectators on Runstreet’s blog.
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that there are so many fun events, it’s hard not to have FOMO! I went to a great shakeout at Fleet Feet with Emma Coburn and Dani Jones sponsored by Fleet Feet and New Balance. I caught up with Zhenya and Sofi, too!
If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that I decided to wear the SAME outfit as the Chicago Marathon and last year’s NYC and Chicago Marathon. It happens that I wore almost the same outfit for Chicago and NYC in 2019. Are you wondering if I don’t have any other running clothes? I do, but this top is SO easy to spot. I’d ask if you had “lucky” or noticeable clothes that you wear on repeat.
If we were having coffee… I had so much fan at the Expo with Sue and Kelly. And I ran into Chicago friend Kerl and Megan from Flow Water. I didn’t buy anything this year except some Liquid GUs. And Sue and I are now spokesmodels for Flow Water – LOL.
If we were having coffee… I tell you that the forecast is for unseasonably warm and humid weather on Sunday so I have a new goal. I’m going to a personal best in smiles per mile. I hope it get it. My mantra will be “best day of the year” this year and if the heat bothers me, I’ll try to enjoy the crowd and experience.
If we were having coffee… I’d ask “what’s happening by you?” Please tell me in the comments!
I’m linking up with Darlene, Michelle, Renee, Jenn and Zenaida, for Fit Five Friday. Join us!
Have a good weekend!
PS. Please don’t forget my great giveaways.
