Blog Suggestions

Well, my few devoted readers, I may be MIA from blogland for a few days, but I will be back!  While I'm gone, however, I thought I'd point you to a few blogs I love to read.  That way, if you need a few moments of procrastination from work or the next household chore, or if you need some lunchtime reading - you have options. 

The first blog is that of my good running friend, Katie.  We met when we were both on the Fleet Feet Racing Team.  She found my blog, knew I lived near her and that I graduated from Auburn, so she sent me an e-mail.  I invited her to run with me and the morning gaggle, she said yes, and the rest is history.  She has become a dear friend and great running resource as well.  She recently ran a 3:18 marathon, which was a PR for her and her story is amazing. 

For the amazing marathon story, go here. 

For the moving and insightful story about her struggle with anorexia, go here. 

The second blog belongs to an old friend of mine named Brett Harrison.  We met...oh back in my middle school and high school days at Camp Wiregrass, were in China at the same time, and now he, his wife and his little girl are currently missionaries in Tanzania.  His blog contains a variety of things from his interpretations of stories and passages in the Bible, to his experiences in Tanzania, to his own athletic pursuits. 

His blog is worth a read. I always find something of interest there, and sometimes something a little life-changing as well. Visit http://jamesbrett.wordpress.com/.

That is all for now!  Have a great week!  When I return to my computer, I will have stories to share, and I'm also throwing around the idea of my first series.  More on that to come!

  1. Yeah, yeah, read the first one! Just kidding. I appreciate you thinking enough of my blog to send people over to check it out. I've said it before, but I would never even know you if you never had a blog. I am so glad I chose to read it and to email you. (and I'm glad you didn't think I was crazy to email a complete stranger!).
