This is me cheersing (not a word) YOU!

In my last post about some of my favorite blogs to read, I mentioned I’d be doing another segment. The time has come! Due to some of the awesome suggestions from you guys on the previous post, I have some newbies on here as well! I’m so glad I ventured into running blog land a bit more because I feel most comfortable there with my running blogger peeps (though I still love all my HLBs!)

First, I gotta give props to all the awesome DC bloggers. Obviously, the following is not a comprehensive list. I read far more than I’ve linked but I have to say we have a great blogging community here in our nation’s capitol and I’m thrilled to to be a part of it! A few of my daily reads are below!

  • Honey I Shrunk the Gretchen  (DC): After meeting Gretchen in person, I can tell you, her personality matches the fun-loving person you meet on the blog! It’s a good one for smiles and today’s post features a special solo πŸ™‚
  • Jess Runs  (DC): I met Jess on my way to the Healthy Living Summit last year and am so glad I did. Her focus on training and the things she enjoys doing (like tailgating) are fun and relatable!
  • Carly Bananas (DC): I like that Carly is a newer runner with a realistic view about races & having fun. After meeting her for the first time last week, I can see her funny personality shine through the blog even more. A DC must read!
  • Travel Eat Repeat  (DC): I really love Erin’s “staycation” posts about places to visit in DC — especially her coffee shop posts when she discovers the cute places we all need to try!
  • Going on Goals (DC): Sarah’s true to her blog’s title about goals & I love that! It’s something we should all focus on more — especially me!
  • Run This Amazing Day  (DC): I’m a new reader of this one but really loving Katie’s hilarious posts. Her training and her sarcasm are a blast to read about!

A few of my non-DC loves include the following. I’m a new daily reader of these girls and so glad I recently decided to expand my reading. I’m not going to lie, I had to knock a few blogs that I wasn’t enjoying out of my reader (I’ll never tell!) to make room for those I like better and that’s A-OK! A select few that were bumped up:

Here’s the truth: I have more to add. However, I know how lists are — and how people stop reading when they get too long & I do NOT want to do that because I actually want you to click on these and check them out!

Just small snapshot of a few others. So much to love peeps!

I’m also using this post to tackle the questionnaire that’s been floating around. I actually kind of promised I wasn’t going to do it (but that was maybe only because no one tagged me – until now!). Cie le vie, why not?
