Shout Out (Follow This Runner) and Giveaway!

Yep, this post is as simple as the title says.  


Just read a fabulous post called What Works For Me by Chicago Runner Girl.  Her blog is relatively new to me but I seem to get something valuable from every post  she writes.  She's a great writer, talented runner, and wise young woman (yes, she seems way too wise for her 20 something self).  I've thought about mentioning her on my blog several times now but after reading her most recent post I figured that I'd make a shout out post just for her.  So, if you have not already, I encourage you to go check out Britt's blog and follow her if you like what you see.  I think you will!  







And...


Since this is my second post for the day, I wouldn't want you to miss my Tri It Wear Giveaway!  Love their product even though I'm not a triathlete.  But I just might be soon! After some e-mails today I'm getting inspired!

  2. I think you follow my book blog, not the running one. :) It's all good.

    I'll have to check out this blog...another Illinois blogger! :)

    I haven't entered your giveaway bc I'm too lazy for all the details, but the shirts look GREAT. I especially like that whole extra length thing.

    And yeah...it's a great feeling to have done it, but now I feel a little lose. What next? My brother sent me a msg saying "I want to do another one"...and I was already online looking for our next marathon! :) Hooked.
