FRIDAY FAVS

I found some great posts recently and wanted to share them with you. There were quite a few out there, so it was tough to choose… My Friday Favorites:

Passion is Everything by Wild Things Run Free, Charlotte is such a gifted writer and wise beyond her years, she talks about following her dreams and making it happen.

What Color Are Your Capris by Love, Life, Surf. Christine talks about being comfortable in your own skin and electric blue capris.

Be the Runner You Are by Run Lady Like: Jesica, writes a beautiful post about how we are all different.

I Miss Running: by Mom’s Little Running Buddy, Katie is currently 29 weeks pregnant talks about how she is getting through those tough moments when you miss “the run”.

How I’m Looking to De-Stress by Live, Love & Run: Melissa, like so many Mom’s struggles to find her “me” time. I love the way Melissa pours her soul into everything she does, another one of my favorite writers.

Carlsbad Marathon Recap by Haute Runnning Mama: Because who doesn’t love to hear about when someone PR’s in the marathon? Makes me cry every time. Congratulations Nicole, you’re amazing!

Have an incredible weekend! xoxo -Lisa

  1. I just caught up with this story. What a fantastic idea. Prayers with the Oconner family.

  2. Can’t wait to run it this weekend! Fantastic links, too. I loved Christine’s post. Off to read the ones I missed!

  3. So awesome that you have put this event together. All of the virtual races during the last year have been such an amazing way to unite with the running community no matter where we are and make a difference when sometimes it feels impossible to have a deep impact individually. I hope you get lots of runners and donations!

    Thank you also for including me in your Friday Favs. That is such an honor coming from you, and I am so appreciative to be on the list with all those other fabulous bloggers. Thanks again and have a great weekend!

  6. Yay for racing! I am very excited although I am a spazz and can’t remember what I signed up for. I am off to check out those links…thanks for keeping us informed, especially those of us who can’t remember what day it is! xoxo

  7. Awesome that the race is underway! So fantastic of you to coordinate this.
