My Fitness Bucket List

June 15, 2012 | Disney, fitness, health, motivation, running, Uncategorized

 

You hear a lot of people talking about bucket lists. They may include things like skydiving, visit a certain country, learn a foreign language, or take a painting class. My bucket list seems to revolve around a lot of fitness related activities, so why not have one JUST for health and fitness? So I thought I would share with you a few of the items on my fitness bucket list. You can check out my full list on my #Fitfluential Fitness bucket list Pinterest board. In no particular order….

 

1.) Run the Tower of Terror ten miler or the tinkerbell half marathon in Disneyland. These are the only two runDisney races I have not run (aside from the expedition Everest challenge) and I have heard great things about tink…and the ToT 10 miler just looks SO fun!

 

2.) Run the Hood to Coast Relay. Ever since last year when I reviewed the movie, I have wanted to do this race. Them, after competing in the Rouge Orleans Ultra relay, I REALLY wanted to run!

 

3.) Paddle board or surf in a beautiful location. I kind of fear learning to do something like this, but would love to get over it and do it! Being in a beautiful location would make it a bit more enticing.

 

4.) Train with Bob Harper. I have loved the Biggest Loser since day one, and really like his approach to health and fitness! Meeting him or training with him would be awesome.

 

5.) Go to a yoga/spa retreat center. A nice long weekend of relaxation and fitness in a beautiful setting like you see on the movies sounds absolutely wonderful and rejuvenating!

I am adding to my bucket list all the time so be sure to check my Pinterest board often!

    I love your bucket list! I would also love to run a Disney race and go to a weekend yoga retreat. Both would make for super fun and healthy vacations :). And I totally agree with you on Bob’s training, I always admired how he trained on TBL :).

    I’ve got one for this Fall..it’s an adventure race called “Be A Hero” and it’s like this firefighter race! You break glass and climb a fire pole. sounds cool.

    I always thought I’d do a Disney race when my kids got into Disney. Alas they’re not Disney’s biggest fans. I really wanna do Tinkerbell though still!
    Finishing up the 5 marathon majors is topping my list.

    I’m fulfilling a bucket list item on Saturday… interviewing Jackie Warner!! I’m big on just doing things as soon as I think of them, so bucket list items don’t last long for me. Great list!! Take me on a retreat with you…

    The Disney Tower of Terror sounds cool! I’d like to run at least 2 halfs a year for as long as I can. I’d also add in a run abroad!

    I am loving all these bucket lists!! Paddle boarding or surfing is a great one- I’ve never done either, let alone in a beautiful location. Thanks for the inspiration. 🙂

    A yoga retreat sounds wonderful! On my fitness bucket list is to do a half ironman and do the NYC half and a half in either Paris or London.

    I definitely want to do the Tower of Terror 10 miler! Qualifying for and running Boston tops my list but I doubt that will happen until I’m like 70 😉

    I want to do a yoga retreat in Italy, or anywhere for that matter along with finally finishing my yoga certification and few different half marathons too

    I’m loving all the fitness bucket lists.

    I have a variety on mine. I would like to own two outdoor bikes so hubby and I can go riding (we have 2 spin bikes at home but I want to get out), I want to do more than 20 vertical knee raises in a row, and a nice big trampoline in the back yard would be very cool.

    Love this idea! On mine is learning to surf…preferably in Hawaii and running a marathon…maybe Mickey for the 20th anniversary.

Pigeon Forge Snow is the perfect family activity no matter the time of year: real snow, comfy temps, and endless winter fun even in the middle of summer. From tubing and snow forts to sweet treats at the candy bar, this is one spot my kid never wants to leave.

Plus, it’s just minutes from Dollywood, the Titanic Museum, and Dolly’s Stampede, so it fits right into any Smoky Mountain trip.

So many people I know follow and like posts and st So many people I know follow and like posts and stories from content creators, but when it’s people they know in real life….forget about it. All of the sudden, we just don’t need or deserve the support. We just get lurkers. 💔 

Women, I encourage you in 2026 to find a table where women champion other women. And I encourage all the ladies here to be a girl’s girl. There is room for everyone, and we ALL need a little support, even those that look like they have it all together. 

Let’s commit to helping each other on AND offline. A simple smile, an “I love your dress” or “your kid did great in the school play” or “hang in there, you got this!” Goes a long way. 

I will never understand people going out of their way to intentionally bypass a person online or in real life. People matter. It’s a tough time of year for a lot of people, so let’s all act like the friends we claim to be and be there for each other however we can. ❤️

This one is great for busy folks who want to make a “special” drink without too much fuss. 🎄 

It’s literally just water frozen in the bottom of a glass with some rosemary taped in it. I waited a few hours the poured in some Prosecco and added in edible glitter (you can use multiple colors!) pretty and delicious, and keeps your drink cold! Cheers! 🥂 ❄️
