Happy Friday!
Whew!
Where did the week go?
First week
back to school
brought:
fewer posts and tweets
training schedule adjustments
early bed times (exhausted!)
lots of new projects
and even a few new outfits (LOL)
Last Friday, many of you shared your stories
of your "little ones" going off to school ~
Some to kindergarten
and....
Some to college
Wow!
It REALLY is amazing how
FAST
they grow up, isn't it???
If you've been following the Turtles blog
for a while,
you know that
Community
is what we're about around here!
So,
a handful of us
(central FL bloggers/runners)
and a few extra buddies
are getting together for lunch/brunch tomorrow
to
kick off
fall racing season
meet new friends
catch up with old friends
share laughs and stories,
struggles and triumphs
and....
eat!
This is especially nice for me
after getting to 'do lunch' with running friends
last weekend.
(Thank you Kathy and Vicki... so great to see you!!)
What are YOU doing this weekend?
How did the first week of school go
for those who returned?
Happy running, friends....
And Happy Weekend!
BIG *hugs*
from the Turtle Runner!

Robin, I know you must of had an exhausting week for the first week of school. I am sure there will be plenty of tweaking of the schedule to fine the right groove that works for you.
It was great to get together with you last weekend for lunch and I am happy for the opportunity to get together soon and meet fellow runners and bloggers. It will be fun. If I haven't said it lately, let me say it now. Thanks for all you do to motivate, inspire and inform us all!
Hugs!

Thanks for the post, not a mum yet, but I work in schools, I have a couple of weeks before I am back in there, teaching the little darlings!
Ooh... if only NJ were a little closer to FL! Your brunch meetup sounds wonderful... enjoy!
Next week is my week to go back to my classroom. I'll be ok once I get that first day or so under my belt. My running strategy is going to be having to go to the track at 5 AM a couple of mornings a week. Once the weather cools, I'll switch to after school runs.
Enjoy the weekend :)
Sounds like a fun weekend planned! We're not up to much, probably relax and get some running in, had a mega busy week!
Hi Robin,
First week back to school/work for me, too. And my babies started high school (gasp). Summer few too fast! This weekend event coordinator for the Skirt Chaser 5K here in Denver so will be working that for eternity tomorrow, in 95 degree heat. UGH.
Have a great weekend - yay for Fridays!! (hugs)
Have FUN!! I am going on a run with bloggy buddy Amanda and I can hardly wait, love her and all the girls I have met through blogging..
My boys started back to school on Thursday. This is the first year I had absolutely NOTHING to do with it - no buying school supplies, asking about classes registered, no new clothes...zip. They live three hours north of me and now, as a college junior and sixth year(!) senior, they are self-sufficient. ::sob:: I know this is what we train them for, but damn, it sure came on suddenly!
Vicki, thank you dear friend, for your kind words...looking forward to seeing you and Kathy (again) this weekend. :) I AM a lucky gal!
Kat, enjoy those final weeks...as I know you are! :)
JavaJoggers ~ wish you could join us, too! Maybe a future event?? Orlando is a beautiful city! :) Yes, the whole adjusting to school schedule thing is stressful...new plan!
Laura, Jill, and Mel ~ have a really fun weekend, whether relaxing, running, or coordinating! Jill, 95 degrees in Denver??? HOW did THAT happen? Oh, and high school? Well, how about THAT, mama?? :-)
Shelley~ the 'babies' are growing up! Wow! More $$ for YOUR shopping. LOL
*hugs*
