I'm reading...

When I stepped away from blogging, I also stopped reading the zillion blogs I subscribe to with Google Reader.  If you don't use Google Reader....you should.  I can enjoy a wide variety of blogs without having to open up each individual site.  It's amazing.  Of course there is also an app so I can read my favorites on the go as well.  Anyhow, I've been trying to catch up on some of my favorites and thought I'd share:

My sister.  I had to include her because she can still kick my ass.

A bff.  I had to include her because I can't outrun her.

This girl is amazing.  Running her 15th marathon of the year. She also gets credit for my love of Mizuno running shoes.  Don't you love how I talk like we are friends?

Reading about others pushing themselves to the limits is inspiring.  She is training for an ultra!  Also, I identify with her story and it gives me hope: 
"I always hated running.
I grew up playing basketball where running was our punishment. It wasn’t fun, it hurt, I was not a fan.  I wasn’t that great of an athlete, but I put my heart and soul into it while I was playing and loved every second of it.  I loved being an athlete and having a purpose to what I was doing with exercise...."

The very first blog I ever subscribed to.  Amazing photos, recipes, and daily recollections of a busy ranch wife.

Super neat tech ideas for teachers and lots of free stuff!

Why do I enjoy reading about other peoples' lives?  Simple...so mine doesn't seem so absolutely crazy and lame all at the same time.
