Happy October ~ This months goals

 

 I am so glad that September is over.  It was an up and down month for me.  I treat every new month kind of like a mini-new year.  I set new goals and try to maintain my positivity.

My first goal is to nail this 10k on Saturday.  I have been training really hard (I know it's a 10k) but I have not had what I would consider a good race in a long time. 

I am having a little get together in a week or two and I am definitely going to try this.  A goal of mine is to be a little more social so I have a few friends coming over.

 

I want to break 100 miles for the month running.

 

I want to run a Halloween themed run and actually dress up.

 

Bake 25 more recipes from my baking book-currently at 42.

 

Make these pumpkins aren't they pretty? 

 

Continue to work on social media-blogging-this is a hard one as I am transitioning from one device to the other and I am totally clueless at the present moment.

 

Go to a fall festival and have fun. 

 

Overall I would like to be able to enjoy things again.

 

Do you set new goals each month?

What are a few things you want to do this October?

Do you like orange or white pumpkins? 

 

Friday Five wish list

First things first, yesterday I told you how I had a 8 mile run planned and how my ultimate running goal was to get under 8 minutes.  Well check this out!!!

I actually ran seven miles.  I ran four miles to the gym, took a spin class (brutall), did a little strength, and ran three miles more.  I decided to enjoy myself a little and walked the last mile home. Progress!!!

MACBOOK PRO- I just love this laptop and have wanted one for a really long time.  I actually do all my blogging from my IPAD which makes it difficult with certain functions.

A NEW KITCHEN!!!!- Doing this baking challenge has made me realize how much I despise my current kitchen (this is a wish list) Something like this would suffice.

WHOLE FOODS- I would love to have a free pass to Whole Foods for the rest of my life so I did not have to pay.  Like an endless gift card. So when they tell me my three bags of groceries are $200.00, I can be this guy 

FRYE JACKIE BUTTON BOOTS-  I love these boots.  Tall boots are so diverse, they go with dresses, jeans, pretty much everything and a bonus is you can wear your compression socks under them (life of a runner) 

Go to Italy- I really want to go to Italy and try all the little coffee shops, eat pasta, and take in the scenery. I have several friends who have recently been to Italy and there phots and stories are awesome. 

A girl can dream, that is why they are wishes.  

Where is someplace you always wanted to go?

What is on your wishlist?

Whole foods? Yay or Nay?
