365 Days of Blogging



It's hard for me to believe but this little blog of mine just turned a year old! I mistakenly thought my first post was July 26, 2013 but it was actually July 22, 2013 so this birthday post is just a few days late-whoops!

Running this blog over the past year has taught me so much; how to be a better writer, how to create things in HTML, how to write about topics my audience is interested in. It's also given me much more than I expected- mainly all of you, my readers! Interacting and connecting with each of you has been such a joy for me. Thank you for reading and for being so awesome and encouraging!

To celebrate this milestone, I've pulled together a top ten list for you- the top five most popular posts plus my personal top five favorite posts. Enjoy!

  1. Happy Bloggiversary!! From one blogger/runner to another, I know how... shall we say, "sometimes challenging" it can be to keep the content coming along week after week. Thankfully, you've always managed to accomplish that with a style that not only manages to capture the charm of your friendly, outgoing personality, but also by being interesting, informative, and fun. So keep it up! Congrats on one year!! #bomainnovember
