It’s Friday! I’m linking up once again with Eat Pray Run DC, You Signed Up for What?! and Mar on the Run for their Friday Five Linkup. This week’s theme is “5 Things I’ll be Doing in 5 Years”. This is a tough one for me. There’s so many things I’d want to be doing/continue to do five years from now. But here’s my list of five things I hope to be doing in 2020.
- Running. I still hope that my love for running will continue and stay injury free. I plan to be running more races, maybe running further than a marathon.
- Swimming. I don’t know how to swim well. Hopefully in five years I’ll have learned to swim.
- Strength training. I would love to build up my strength so I can do handstands.
- Eating better. I still lack in the eating healthy department. I take supplements but need to eat more vegetables in every meal.
- Hiking. I used to hike a lot and this is something I’d like to do more of now that the kids are getting older.
Those are five things I’ll be doing in five years. What do you think you’ll be doing in five years?
Hope you have a great weekend and be sure to check out the other blogs! 🙂
Happy Running Mom 
I’m with you on #4 and #5. I used to hike a lot with my husband but my recent focus on triathlon and cycling has taking time away from that shared hobby. I miss it.

I will be an empty nester so I hope to keep up my fitness level and do more traveling…. so many places to see and so little time in life ! Of course if I have to pay for my children’s college education, the travel might have to wait a bit.

Sounds good. Traveling would be nice. I’m dreading the thought of college expenses for my kiddos.

I hope to continue to run also. I am not a big fan of swimming though. Hiking would be something I’d like to get into. I have been wanting to go camping all summer and haven’t had a chance yet.

I miss hiking. I wish we lived somewhere that didn’t require a long drive to get to a trail. I’d love to move to Bend or Boulder some day to be near hiking again.
