Some bloggers very actively visit other blogs, posting comments and linking to them in their own blogs. I am not one of those bloggers. I have a few sites I love to visit, and I spend a lot of time on them. However, when I heard about Running into the Sun on Phedippidations (listed in my Blogroll), I had to check it out.
So, she’s faster, younger and skinnier than I am, but that just makes me love her and her blog even more, because she has worked so hard for that (well, not for the yonger part). She started running about two years ago to recover her health, and ended up losing over 60 pounds and gaining an obsesion with running. Anyone who admits to checking the local race calendars when she travels is my kind of girl.
My favorite post since I’ve started visiting Running into the Sun is about her longer-than-a-5k 5k race. Check it out.
Welcome to the Blogroll, Sarah! And, I’m officially issuing you an open invitation to join me on a run or in a NYRR race if you ever find yourself in New York City.
Pigtails Flying 
My best friend in the whole world lives on the upper west side (W 79th and Broadway area). So the chances I will eventually make it to NYC again are very good! Her hubby is actually a member of the NYRR and did that Healthy Kidney 10K race while I was visiting my friend last May. I really wanted to run in Central Park (not the usual “let’s go to the top of the Empire State Building!” touristy thing to do) but since I only had one full day to spend with my BFF in the city we ended up doing other things like eating at a sidewalk cafe and having ridiculously expensive gelato.
