Daily Mile.
One of the greatest things I found since running. It's a site full of runners (and bikers, walkers, swimmers, etc) cheering on other runners. I heart it!
When I first starting running, I ran in Chicago with a group called CARA. Me and hundreds of my closest friends out there running every morning. I found so much inspiration and motivation through other members.
Now I'm a mom....in the burbs....with 2 kids.....and a crazy schedule. So running with a group is out the window. My hubby golfs. My kids have dance, gymnastics, birthday parties, etc. And we still try to have a social life. So running is "whenever I can get it in." Most times it's Sunday morning, but it may be Sunday evening, Saturday morning, or an awesome Friday night followed by wine and a firepit! :)
So I have found dailymile.com. I log my runs. But I also find so much inspiration and motivation. People actually take time to tell me "great run". And I learn about so many fun races, racing gear, etc.
On Sunday my dad and I will be at the Grand Rapids starting line...and I have a whole bunch of DM friends who will be out there with me. It would be cool to meet them!!! If you run, you should DM! You WILL be inspired!
