four hundred!

typically on the milestone number posts, i like to do something fun.  #100, #200 and #300 were all about me, but this time i am doing something a little different.

back on my blog’s second birthday jolynn’s comment that stood out to me:

And how many relationships have you formed because of runner’s rambles? Pretty wild, isn’t it? ;)

i started thinking about it and looking through some old posts and pictures and was actually pretty overwhelmed by it!  i have met so many amazing people and even some of my best friends through this blog (although two of which i knew pre-blog days).  i can even go to races out of state and still have friends out there cheering for me.

so for post #400, i wanted to dedicate it to you guys, my readers, and to all of those who i have actually met!  THANK YOU bloggers, for all your support, for your comments, for your advice, for your posts, and mostly for your friendship… and for those of you who i haven’t had the pleasure of meeting yet, i hope we get to meet soon.  i am really excited because i know this list will be growing in the next couple weeks! 

here is a video of all the bloggers i have met over the past 2 years, that i actually have pics with… and because don’t we all need a little party in the USA in our lives ;)

featuring…

maritza, tara, kristin, julianneeven though you don’t blog anymore it’s still how i met you!, danica, jen, kristen, aslia, meghann, bobbi, audrey, amanda, sarah, amy, katie, roadbunner, amy, jolynn, RBR, ron, petra, mel, nicole, marci, sabrina, holly, ally, amanda, billy

    I love it, awesome post! When looking at races I want to run, it's so neat to think about which bloggers live in that state and who I "know" through blogging that will be there. It's just such a neat community. Happy 400!
