Date Your Mate Month: Daily Date Idea #12

Daily Date Idea May

Daily Date Idea # 12

Think speed.

  • Sign up to run a race together – 5k, 10k, half marathon, marathon, take your pick.  Check Active.com to find a race and for guidance to get started.  
  • Attend a type of race you have never been to before.  Boat, car, aircraft, horse or dog race, take your pick!  
  • Race each other.  On foot or bike or whatever – heck see who can be the first to finish the dishes!

What do you think?  Share your date idea in the comments below!

    I love this! Coincidentally, I JUST signed my husband & I up for a fun Themed 5k.
    We have never ran one before!

      Thanks, Becky! My wife and I want to do a color run some time. Looks like lots of fun. Good luck with the 5k. Hope you both have fun!
