It’s free topic week but I missed last week’s and I’ve got “Spring” on the brain.
So here’s a list of what I’m looking forward to this Spring:
- Scenic Hikes (ones WITHOUT frozen anything)
It’s to be nice to leave those spikes behind and climb those fire towers again.
- Runs without Layers (and beanies and gloves)
Won’t we all feel lighter?
- Outdoor Walks
I’m grateful for the availability of several malls to get my steps in… but I need fresh air..
- More Local Races
Not too many races are scheduled during the winter months where I live. I had to travel to Florida, NYC and NC to run races.
- Flowers Blooming
With that goes more daylight hours and sunshine.
- Annual Tennis Vacation
It may be the only occasion where I now play tennis but I enjoy getting to spend time with my lifelong friends.
- Pickleball
I signed up (for the 3rd time) for lessons so I can play weekly at a nearby park.
- Beginning of the Boating Season
Too cold for swimming but not for relaxing on the Lake George islands.
- Girls Weekend in NYC
Five of us are running the Mastercard Women’s Mini 10k race and doing some other fun activities including seeing a Broadway show.
Happy Running!! What’s on your Spring Bucket List? Are you happy to see winter ending or do you enjoy some activities in colder temps? Please share.


Since today is Tuesday, I’m linking up with Jenny (RunnersFly) and Jenn (Runs with Pugs).
and tomorrow:

I’m also linking up with: co-hosts Coach Debbie Runs, Confessions of a Mother Runner, Mile by Mile, and Runs with Pugs









These activities all sound so much fun, Darlene!
I love how varied your interests are – it’s a nice counterbalance to all the running and competing, right?

Sigh! I remember how lovely spring is up north. In Florida, it’s just the beginning of a long, hot summer. There are some races but they’re pretty hot and terrible. I am looking forward to lots of daylight, and a more relaxed schedule once school is out. You on the other hand have a lot to look forward to! So many fun things planned. Well, you paid your dues all winter-now you can enjoy some beautiful weather!

Yes for sure but it was great to get away a few times during the miserable winter!
