Right? We learned this back in preschool. One thing I’ve discovered after venturing further into the blogosphere is how many AWESOME blogs there are out there. I’m sure there are a billion I’m missing too but I figured I needed to do my part and share some of the awesomeness I’ve found on the internet lately:
*Weight Off My Shoulders-Dani writes this blog from such an honest and kind perspective that I’ve already claimed her as my best blogger friend (even though I’m sure she doesn’t know my blog or I exist :P) Anyway, her blog and social media channels are full of motivation, inspiration, and some accountability when you need it. Dani runs with a charity team raising money for stroke awareness and throws these awesome virtual races to help with fundraising. I’m running one next week. I totally don’t mind paying $25 to run a 5k in my own neighborhood because the money goes to such a good cause. Plus, I get a finisher’s medal! This blog is one of my favorites and if I were to ever join Weight Watchers I would want Dani to be my leader!
*Brooke: Not On A Diet-You may have heard of Brooke. Her blog was in the news recently. She stood up for herself to a major magazine and it was amazing! Brooke’s blog was one of the first fitness type blogs I started following. Brooke seems like the sister I never had…meaning, we seem very similar; both dealing with a certain amount of anxiety regarding this thing called life. Brooke seems to be much more adept to placing her insecurities out into cyperspace than I am. I read her blog and I think, “She knows exactly how I feel/think/act/etc.” Brooke is also pretty interactive with her followers by setting up challenges (like the Skinny Snowman) and the recent Diet Bet (which I will NOT be discussing at this time :P). She loves spending time with her husband and they seem to have a ton of fun together! I enjoy her fresh perspective on life, love, marriage, and those pesky weight issues.
*I Heart Faces-this is not a fitness blog but a photography blog. I found this blog through social media when I was searching for photo challenges not too long ago. This blog focuses mostly on protrait photography and while landscapes are definitely more my thing, it’s fun to read the tutorials, debate equipment, and show off their beautiful studio spaces. Not to mention the photographs! From standard portrait style sessions to crazy concepts-this blog and all their guest photographers have the best imagination! I haven’t entered many of I Heart Faces challenges just because I don’t have a ton of pictures with other people in them! Maybe I’ll branch out…maybe.
I could go on and on if I mentioned every single blog I follow and love. Here are a few more you should definitely check out though!
*Erica House-Health, Wellness, and Running (What more do you need!)
*Hungry Runner Girl-Janae runs crazy amounts of miles and eats tons of candy. I heart her!
*Blonder Side of Life-Kelsey is a down-to-earth girl originally from Tennessee (love it!) who blogs about running, life, grad school, and shares some pretty kick-a** recipes!
On a final note I should say that Bloglovin is the most amazing website/app I’ve ever found. I love getting up each morning and checking my feed. You can follow all your favorites in one place. What a wonderful, motivating way to start each day!
I hope you check out these awesome blogs that have come to mean so much to me!
