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.

We have been having a great June so far! We recent We have been having a great June so far! We recently spent some time in Pigeon Forge at @dollywood and @downtownflavortown, two of our faves. 

If you haven’t been to either, add them to your list! Dollywood has tons of great rides and shows (we are season pass holders so go often!) and Downtown Flavortown has amazing food, an arcade and duck pin bowling. They were kind enough to have us come visit and eat with them. 

Are you going anywhere fun this summer?

We spent a few days at Natchez Trace (part of @thousandtrails), and it was exactly what we needed—peaceful, fun, and full of charm. #100daysofcamping

✨ Lake strolls
⛳️ Mini golf showdowns
🏀 Basketball games
🔥 Campfire s’mores
🦆 duck feeding
…and plenty of unplugged moments together 💛

This spot truly has it all—whether you’re glamping, RVing, or just looking for a getaway that blends nature and comfort.

😎 90’s summer loading….. If you grew up in 😎 90’s summer loading…..

If you grew up in the 90’s like me, you know we had THE BEST summers. They were simple, but magical. Yes sometimes we got bored and fought with our friends, but the freedom and fun was so memorable. 

In today’s world of screen time and filling every second of the day with “fun” for our kids so they never have to be bored, it makes me sad that they won’t experience what we did. So I am trying to recreate a 90’s summer the best way I can.

Will we still travel? Of course, it’s my job. But when we are home, I’m not filling every second with fun. I’m making her figure it out. Read a book. Do some chores. Then just…go. Play. Be a ten year old while I work. Then in the evenings we can play some more, together, while I tell stories of all the crazy and fun things I did as a kid during those special 90’s summers. ☀️ 🩷
