It is the first Saturday of the month so, of course, that means it’s time for another edition of the Ultimate Coffee Date link-up, hosted by Coco and Deborah. When you’re done here, be sure to check out what the other ladies are dishing about.
If we were having coffee together, I’d tell you that October is one of my favorite months of the year. I feel like this is when fall really comes to life – the days are cooler, the leaves turn colors, and its time break out boots and sweaters. Confession I bought a great pair of boots last week that I’m dying to wear 😉 I’m looking forward to apple picking, hiking, celebrating our 24th wedding anniversary, and more fall racing!
If we were having coffee together, I’d tell you that I’m also really looking forward to taking the whole family with me to NYC next weekend for RnR Brooklyn. I lived in NYC for 7 years, and haven’t been back in ages. There’s so much I want to see and do…how am I going to fit it all in?!
If we were having coffee together, I’d tell you that cannot believe that a year ago this time I hadn’t been running for almost two months and was preparing for major surgery. And now, I’m days away from half marathon #11 – what a difference a year makes!
If we were having coffee together, I’d tell you that I’m also so excited to have booked my flights and hotel for Vegas next month! It’s 6 weeks away (yes I’m counting!) – use code ROCKATTITUDE and join me!
So what would you tell me over coffee?
October is my favorite month too! I wanted to wear my boots this week, but it was rainy so I decided not to risk damaging them. You all will have a blast in NYC!
Thanks for joining us for coffee!

Yep my new boots have yet to make an appearance because of all the rain we’ve been having. Maybe they’ll make the trip to NYC for post run 🙂
Lucky you to be going to NYC. I will be going in November with my husband. I go once or twice a year for work but haven’t been with my husband in over 20 years. I can’t wait.
While it is cooler here, I am still wearing white skirts and sandals !

Are you going to stick around NYC post-marathon?
RnR Brooklyn will be so much fun! I’m so jelly! October is a fabulous month. I just wish it weren’t so darn rainy here all of a sudden. Yay for Vegas! I’m already having FOMO on that one too!

I was hoping you were going back to Vegas this year! One of these days our race paths will cross 🙂
This reminds me I sore I had to have new boots for this season. My old ones really need replacing! Oh wow how fun is that trip going to be for the family when you go to NYC! Yup your going to have to pick and choose what to do!
I”m so jealous you get to do all these RnR runs!

Sounds like it’s time for a little boot shopping 🙂
I bought a cute pair of rain boots which came in very handy the past few days. October is my favorite running month

Oh now you’ve reminded me that I could use a new pair of rain boots 😉
I am with you October is my favorite month of the year! I love the crisp air and leaves changing color. I am hoping to hit the apple orchard next weekend! That is my favorite fall activity.

I love apple picking! Have fun!
Congrats on 24 years of marriage! We just celebrated 28. Well, sort of…I was in Texas with my sister on the actual day. Our trip to Big Sur last April was our anniversary present to ourselves. Remember my husband said it wasn’t a second honeymoon? Well, it really was. So fun!

Thanks Wendy!
RnR NYC will be a great race! A year makes a huge difference. I was down with a stress fracture thinking I may never run again (yes, a little dramatic). I’m glad we are both healthy this year. Congrats on 24 years!
I’m so happy we’re both healthy! And, you’re going to rock Chicago!
I hope you and the family have a great time in NYC, I can’t wait to hear how Brooklyn goes! And happy anniversary!
