We’ve got FIVE incredible co-hosts My First 5K and MoreRunning With AttitudeRun Laugh Eat PieRuns with Pugs, and me for another Fit Five Friday link-up!  This week’s topic is “5 favorite fitness moments of 2023.”  Feel free to write about this or any fitness topic you’d like.

The 2023 wasn’t the best one for me for running.  However, I did start walking (I just need to start again) and that is something that I haven’t done before.

Here are my 5 favorite fitness moments of 2023:

Running the NYC Half Marathon – I know I have mentioned this race a few times, but I think this might be the last time I will mention it.  

Spectating the Chicago Marathon – It was a great and fun day!  It is one of my favorite days in Chicago.  This year I was inspired by all of the runners and entered the lottery to run it next year.  Unfortunately, I was not selected.  That is OK.  It just wasn’t meant to be.  But it does mean that I will be there again as a spectator.

Negative splits on a run – It is a good feeling when that happens.

A “fast” average pace – I have days in which I finish my run faster than I expected.  I ran by feel or a good and comfortable pace but sometimes my legs want to go faster.

Good health report – I try to take good care of myself but sometimes I slip.  I think we all do.  Sometimes my cholesterol is a little hight but then my A1C is at a decent level.  Overall, I am pleased when I get the results from the bloodwork.

The topic for next week: 5 fitness goals for 2024.  We hope you’ll link up with us!
