    So this summer I would like to try:

    CrossFit
    Bikram Yoga
    Rock Climbing (indoors and outdoors)
    Another 10k
    NROWL
    Mud Run (already signed up!)
    10+ mile hike (the most I've ever done was 6 miles)

    And just in general on my fitness bucket list I would like to accomplish a:
    Half-Marathon
    Marathon (eek!)
    Triathlon

    What's on you bucket list?!

    About your bucket list: a half marathon isn't bad! What makes them even more tolerable is when you run with someone, regardless if you know them or not! I made a friend on the most recent half marathon I ran and it was fun. :)

    My Summer Bucket List:
    More Zumba
    Attend Summer Speedwork Sessions (on Thursdays)
    Run more State Parks (the hills will help with training!)
    Birkam Yoga - once a week
    Try Crossfit
    Rock climbing
    Run stairs at the school I work at

    Basically I want to get in 3 workouts a day. This fall I am running 3 half marathons--possibly 4 and I am totally stoked. I think once I finish 3 in 2 months, I will be ready for a full. :)

    Thanks to everyone for giving me such great ideas! Here's my summer list (to be completed by Aug):

    1. Get back into Turbokick classes (my favorite from a few summers ago)
    2. Try other workout classes at gyms around town (free passes for a few days)
    3. Canoe/kayak at least once
    4. Log food/workout in MFP every day! (stay focused, one day at a time)
