Happy November friends! Thanks for joining Coco and me for the November Ultimate Coffee Date Link up. Since we can’t all have coffee together in real life, these posts are a great way to catch up with all of your friends and meet some ones. So grab your favorite mug and join us!
November Ultimate Coffee Date
If we were having coffee, I would tell you...My soup club starts up again tomorrow and this is the perfect weather for it. I have a couple of new friends joining us and I can’t wait to see what everyone whips up this week. I will be explaining more about how our club works and how you can start your own coming soon.
If we were having coffee, I would tell you…I love November! My birthday is coming up on the 14th. While I am not thrilled about adding another year to my candle, at least there’s cake and presents. 🙂 Well there better be!
I also love Thanksgiving! Really looking forward to hosting our whole family for dinner at our new house. The best part will be that my daughter will be home for 10 days and I can’t wait for us all to be together. My son went out to Indiana to visit her but I have not seen her in a while.
If we were having coffee, I would tell you…I mentioned how running has been hard for me lately. I feel like I am finally starting to get my groove back a little bit. After doing the MCM 10K last week, I decided that I would do a 10K every weekend in November to try to get back into better running shape. This is either the stupidest thing I’ve decided to do or the smartest. I will keep you posted! Off to the Run For The Parks 10K tomorrow.
So if we were having coffee, what would you tell me? Have you planned your Thanksgiving meal yet?

yay! We are both running 10K’s this morning! I think it is a great idea! Love the pic of the kids I think that is sweet that your son went out to visit his big sis! <3
I hope you have a little something fun planned for your birthday 🙂 cake is a good start! No dinner plans for Thanksgiving yet! Who knows where I may end up!
Have a great race this weekend! See too bad you are too far away for Thanksgiving (at least I know you would like my veggie food) Thanks for stopping by for coffee
Hi!!! So sorry it has been a while since I have joined you for coffee!
Soup club….that sounds devine!
Happy birthday!! Age ain’t nothing but a number!!!
Née house….I need to catch up for sure! Congrats!
Hey I did MCM 10k too… those hills though!!! Join me in Annapolis for the Running festival.I think there are still 10k spots. Tamieka16 for 10% off
I think we will go to NY to visit my dad for Thanksgiving. ..not sure yet.
Thanks for hosting coffee – it was good to catch up!
it was super hilly at MCM I was surprised. Did not love the course but it was lots of fun. I have never done Annapolis I will look into it. I’ve done Zooma a few times love running there. Thanks for stopping by today!
soup club? sounds fun!
are you gonna run veteran’s 10k next weekend too?
Soup club is amazing have to get cooking today. I am going to do a small 10K on actual Veteran’s Day which is Friday called On Eagles Wings in Falls Church. It’s a quaint local race but lots of fun. How about you?
Oh, wow on the 10K streak! Sounds like fun. I got hit with a cold this week, so I’m laying low this weekend. I forgot our birthdays are so close – mine is the 16th! – we should celebrate together.
Yes you have the same birthday as my husband! Yes we need to lunch or yoga or shopping or something lets figure it out!!
Good luck with all of your 10K’s…that’s the perfect distance to run each weekend to get the mojo back. It’s just far enough to make your body work, but it’s not so far that it’ll destroy you for the day LOL
Yes that’s the plan!!
I love it when the whole family is together. Our college kid drove in and we were together last night for a birthday celebration. Happy Birthday to you, by the way — a little early. My MIL still enjoys hosting Thanksgiving dinner so I all I have to do is show up with a couple of dishes. Christmas dinner is the big event for me. I don’t think running a 10k every weekend sounds crazy at all! I’d be out running a race today if I could have found a local one. Thanks for the coffee date!
It is great when the whole family is together-the important things! Showing up with a few dishes sounds great. Love the local races this time of year. Thanks for stopping in today and have a great weekend
So I don’t think doing a 10k every weekend is a bad idea! 6 miles is my go to base run–sounds perfect to me!
I hope it helps me get my running mojo back and feel like my old self out there. Thanks!
10K every weekend – wow! I find 10ks to be one of the harder distances for me. I think it’s a great idea as a way to jumpstart your running.
An early Happy Birthday to you!!
For me they are hard enough to feel like I had a great workout but not too hard to knock me down for the rest of the day. I hope it works! Thanks for stopping by today and have a great weekend
Thanks for hosting! The soup club sounds amazing!
This will be my first Thanksgiving with my in-laws so it should be an adventure!
Have a great weekend
Well that is always an adventure!! Hope you enjoy
Good for you for committing to the 10K’s. That is awesome!
I think it will be fun!
Wonderful to have time with your daughter! I love the 10K idea- I love that race, but there aren’t any that really fit for my schedule or a location nearby- I will have to look into it though- it’s good to keep you motivated I am sure!
This time of the year we have a lot of 10K’s so I figured, why no?!
I love your black pants with the cutouts down the leg! I’m 34, am I too old for those!? Where do I get them?
I think you mean the pants my daughter is wearing? We have a matching pair so I would say we are both not too old to wear them.WE got them at the Chelsea Collective last year.
Yes! They look great, thanks!
I’m super excited to hear about your soup club. That sounds so fun!!
Good kick with all your 10k’s. I hope it’s a smart decision. 😉
And happiest of birthdays to you, too!!
Ah thanks Clarinda! The soup club is great stay tuned for details this week. Have a great weekend
Happy early bday Deb! November is going to be a great month!!
Thanks! I sure hope so 🙂
Sounds like you have a great November ahead of you with the 10Ks, a birthday, and family time! Hope the running mojo comes back for you!
So do I! Thanks so much
The soup sounds really interesting! I think challenging yourself to do a 10K each weekend sounds great! Hopefully that’ll shake things up. I’m also hosting Thanksgiving in my new home for the first time…so nervous but excited!
I am nervous too and excited about hosting Thanksgiving in our new house. It will be fun for both of us!
I don’t see my comment going through on your page hope it did!
A 10K a weekend is a great idea! I have been toying with doing a 5K every weekend from now until the end of the year. I am finally wanting to run again so I thought it would be fun to do something fun
I think that does sound like a great idea too! Go for it
Happy early birthday! Sounds like November will be a very busy month 🙂
Thank you! I guess it is going to be a busy month!
Generally November is a busy running month for me! The cooler weather suits me. Or that training over the summer finally kicks in . . .
It’s the cooler weather for me! I am feeling so much better
I love 10ks! It is such a fun distance, and a great way to get your running mojo back!
I think it’s working! Felt fabulous today
Soup club sounds amazing! I definitely need more details.
I’m just getting back into running after a loong hiatus. Well, I was running but it was in the form of 1 minute or less sprint intervals so no distance or stamina. 🙁
stay tuned for info on soup club this week! Yay for returning to running it is the perfect weather for it
A 10K every weekend?! You are incredible!
Your soup club sounds like a delicious idea, too! I need to try that!
We shall see how it goes! 2 down 2 to go. Soup club details coming Wednesday
Hope you get your running mojo back. Those things happen…
sounds like November will be great. Having kids home is so great. I am dreading having mine go away 🙁
Yes so far November is much better I am optimistic thanks
The 10k distance is really great, I only wish there were more 10ks in my area. We have more 5ks than anything else.
Happy early, birthday! Hope you get some running gifts! 🙂
This time of year we have a ton of 10K races and then nothing all winter but 5K’s so I have to take advantage
Love that picture at the top with the cozy socks and coffee mug! So glad I found your link up – suck fun!!
Oh good! So glad to have you and hope to see you around soon
Happy almost Birthday!!! I actually love birthdays – everyone is so nice to you, and like you say – treats & presents. Woohoo!
You must be excited about your daughter being home for the holidays =) That will be so nice.
And running – it comes and goes I feel like. Enjoy your November running!
If we were having coffee, I would tell you that I just ran a 10km without really training for it and was happy with the outcome =)
Thanks so much and I love when that happens!
I just love all of these coffee date posts. I keep meaning to join in.
They are great fun hope to see you at the next one
