Thanks for joining Coco and me for the February Ultimate Coffee Date today. Since it’s the end of the month, I am throwing in a few Runfessions for fun. I have a lot to tell you today! Grab your coffee mugs and let’s get right to it.
February 2020 Ultimate Coffee Date Runfessions
If we were having coffee, I would Runfess …
You may recall my mentioning about a year ago that I signed up for an adult Bat Mitzvah program. Well that year has sure flown by because it’s tonight! There are 12 of us in my group tonight, all of us becoming adult Bat Mitzvahs. I would Runfess that I am a little nervous about reading from the torah (in Hebrew) in front of so many people. Admittedly, I did not know how to read Hebrew at all before this class. I did not want a big “to do” but I am having a small celebration tonight with my besties. Stay tuned for some pics on Sunday for the Weekly Run Down.
If we were having coffee, I would Runfess…
I can’t believe that Rock N Roll New Orleans is next weekend. Wow this month flew by! I am excited that my husband is coming along this time and we have a few fun tours on our agenda. He is a big foodie, so there will be lots of good eats. I may not be able to walk afterwards but I am excited about the half.
If we were having coffee, I would Runfess…
Just call me the blog linkup queen! I am joining Debbie, Rachel, Lisa, Jen and Smitha for the new Wednesday “Runners’ Roundup”. What’s one more linkup? I actually love them and find I have really been able to connect with so many more bloggers and readers. We hope to encourage a much broader range of posts relating to running and wellness. With this “six pack” of runners you can expect lots of great content. Look forward to seeing you there.
Whew! That was a lot! Thanks for joining us for the February 2020 Ultimate Coffee Date Runfessions. If we were having coffee, what would you tell me?
I was just thinking of your Bat Mitzvah! I remembered you talking about it last year…CONGRATS!!! I’m excited for the new link-up, too! Gonna be fun having another place to connect with my fitness pals 🙂
thanks excited but nervous about tonight! Link up will be fun
Congratulations on you Bat Mitzvah and hope all the reading out loud has gone OK. Well done!
I am pleased so many have joined up their coffee date and runfessions this week as I’ve been trying to stay caught up with my blogs all week and have pretty well managed it for once.
It’s a really fun link up glad to have you aboard as always
Congrats on your Bat Mitzvah! How exciting that your race is next week. And I’m definitely looking forward to the new link-up!
Thanks and yes so glad that you will be co hosting w us. It’s going to be great
I’m looking forward to seeing those Bat Mizvah pictures! And another link-up! That’s going to be interesting, for sure! Will your husband be running the New Orleans RnR as well? Or is he coming as your support team?
Oh no the hubs is just my cheering section and foodie guide 🙂
I wondered if you’d gone through with your Bat Mitzvah prep! Congrats and good luck! You’ll be great! Have so much fun in NOLA. It’s a wonderful place for foodie. I runfess when I glanced at your new linkup graphic I thought the runner’s race bib was a coronavirus mask! Haha!
ha ha on the virus! Yes I cannot believe it is tonight already!
Glad to hear about the Bat Mitzvah! So exciting. You’ve got a lot of good stuff going on!
Thanks a lot going on for sure but good stuff 🙂
Mazel Tov! You’ll do great, I know (now imagine doing it at 13!). Although I did go to Hebrew School — and sang in the Junior Choir. I was a bit nervous about speaking at my Dad’s service, and wasn’t quite sure I’d actually do it although I’d written something. Seriously, I know you’ll be fine.
We definitely ate our way through New Orleans, and we did a couple of tours, too. I’m already looking for a food tour of Portland when we’ll be there this Summer . . .
Thanks Judy I just have to not look up during the torah reading lol. My kids keep telling me they did it at 13 so I have nothing to be nervous about
Mazel Tov on the Bat Mitzvah! My stepmom did that in her 50s. It was really cool. I imagine it’s more meaningful as an adult when you have more life experiences!
I’ll check out the new link up!
Good luck in NOLA!!
You know I would have to agree with that to some degree I guess it is! Thanks and yes hope to see you over on the Wednesday linkup as well
Congratulations on the Bat Mitzvah!! So exciting! Enjoy the celebration.
If we were having coffee, or tea for me :), I’d runfess that I’m a little nervous with how my knee will hold up now that I’m routinely adding mileage on in order to train for my half marathon in March. I’m doing what I can in terms of strength exercises but you just never know I guess.
Know you really never do know. I am working on adding mileage back too. Just listen to your body and take rest when you need it
I was born and raised in NOLA! You’ll have so much fun. I can’t wait to see your posts about it. It’s truly one of the most unique cities in this country (or anywhere).
Thanks! That’s what I hear! Really looking forward to a fun filled few days there
Congrats on the Bat Mitzvah! And how exciting about a new link up 🙂 I’ll keep an eye out for it.
Thanks so much and yes we would love to see you join the link up as well
Congratulations and I’m sure you will do fine at the adult Bat Mitzvahs. Here is to a wonderful weekend!
Mazel Tov on taking Bat Mitzvah classes as an adult! So cool!!! I will be looking for pics. Congrats on the new link up too! I will be checking it out.
Thanks so much and hope to see you at the new link up as well. Have a great weekend
I am so excited to be part of the new 6-pack and can’t wait for Tuesday’s post!
Mazel Tov on your Bat Mitzvah! That is so exciting and I cannot wait to see pictures
Thanks and yes Wednesday linkup will be fun for all
Congrats on your Bat Mitzvah! Looking forward to hearing how everything goes tonight.
Sounds like a fun new link-up – I’ll have to be sure to check it out!
Thanks Michelle will tell you all about it on Sunday. Thanks!
Congrats on your Bat Mitzvah! I hope it went well and that you’re having a wonderful time celebrating! I can’t wait to see pictures on Sunday.
Have a great weekend!
Thanks so much Deb!
Congratulations on the Bat Mitzvah! That’s really fantastic. Is there a particular heme for the new link up? Is it replacing the Coaches Corner? I’d love to have time for midweek blogging. Good luck with New Orleans!
Thanks and yes it’s replacing the coaches corner. Running and health and wellness themed hope to see you there
Love the idea of the Runners RoundUp link up and can’t wait to join it!
I hope that you have an amazing time at RnR Nola next weekend! As you know that’s on my bucket list – it wasn’t in the cards this year but maybe next year 🙂
Yes another fun link up to join! Thanks I am really excited about NOLA should be lots of fun
That is so exciting about your Bat mitzvah. You’ll be awesome.
Enjoy NOLA too. As great foodie place. I’d love to run there. I was there before I was a runner.
Can’t wait to hear about both.
Thanks so much! Last night was great. Photos coming tomorrow
RnR New Orleans sounds like a lot of fun. I’ve never been there but it’s on my bucket list. Can’t wait to hear all about it.
Yay for the new link up!
I am really excited!
Ooo, hope you have a lot of fun in New Orleans! I’ve never been there but would love to visit someday! Congrats on your Bat Mitzvah–I hope the reading out loud part goes well!
Thanks it was great!
Congratulations on your bat mitzvah! And I am so envious of your trip to New Orleans. I hope you have a great time and enjoy all the amazing food! And ooh, I’m excited about the new linkup! Thanks for hosting coffee 🙂
Thanks so much for all of the above!
Trying so hard to get my race recaps done for Tuesday TOpics, but good to know about the Wednesday one as an option for if/when I don’t make it.
New Orleans and Bermuda snuck up on us in the best possible way
Yes feel free to join us on Wednesdays with race recaps. Should be fun. And yes, I could have used a few more weeks to train but it will be fun none the less.
Hello, Deborah (The blog linkup queen),
First of all, Congratulations to you all 12 who became adult Bat Mitzvahs. Cheer up all of you a hot cup of cappuccino.
Best wishes for Rock N Roll at New Orleans and huge dishes of Yammie food for your husband.
By the way, you are so pretty, your profile pic says that you are not only a blog linkup queen but also a real queen.
Thanks and lots of love
