I love everything about Shamrock weekend except the courses :/ I just think they are so boring compared to other places I've run.

And for the record, nuun is pretty cool but I don't think I could write an entire post about it :-) And I think expanding my topics is a great idea- there's a lot more I'd like to share other than running and I think I'll try some of that soon :-)Sarah S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09861496043188311237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2483808524582624189.post-90675533178360921932014-03-26T11:18:53.698-04:002014-03-26T11:18:53.698-04:00Done and done! :-)Done and done! :-)Sarah S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09861496043188311237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2483808524582624189.post-87402864538994057422014-03-26T11:18:42.943-04:002014-03-26T11:18:42.943-04:00Thanks, Kathryn!

Your post was really fantastic and really helpful- I started using bloglovin and buffer (one of your readers commented about it) and they both have been really awesome. :-)Sarah S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09861496043188311237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2483808524582624189.post-15064169705235339212014-03-26T10:01:29.603-04:002014-03-26T10:01:29.603-04:00I also love race recaps, but I also like hearing a...I also love race recaps, but I also like hearing about someone else's training! It makes me feel like I'm not alone when I'm struggling, and I feel like I can also experience someone else's excitement in earning a PR or conquering a new race distance. :) I think your plan sounds perfect -- I definitely struggle with the amount of time it takes to keep my blog current, promote it, etc., and you've inspired me to start thinking about my own goals -- thank you! :-DJennifer L.

I don't think your blog has to focus solely on running. It's YOUR blog. If you see a great movie or go someplace fun, and you want to share that, write about it. I'd rather read about someone's opinion of an exhibit at a local museum than one more product review of Nuun.

Like you, I was fearful of the commitment of trying to blog more frequently, and although it does take time, its not as difficult as I feared it would be.<br /><br />I love reading about a variety of topics - race and expo recaps, product reviews, and training in general. What I love most about blogs is reading about the individual. As long as you're you, that's what is most important.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00477993614057345844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2483808524582624189.post-1748183200504973482014-03-26T09:17:06.149-04:002014-03-26T09:17:06.149-04:00Thanks!
