Happy Happy Friday! What a week – looking forward to some relaxation and running this weekend. Today I am linking up with Mar, Courtney, and Cynthia and the theme is Blogs to Read. Several of my new favorite blogs participate in this linkup so I thought I would share five fave blogs outside the Friday Five (here is my list from September 2014). In no particular order:
1. Running the States

Nathasha is from the DC area and as her blog name suggests she is Running the States. You may remember Nathasha from my Charleston and Love Half recaps – we went to high school together! She will also run her second Marine Corps Marathon this fall. Good luck this weekend in Tennessee!

Tracy recently PR’d at the Shamrock Marathon in March (over 30 minutes). She is a runner, triathlete, and is sharing her capsule wardrobe on her blog!

Jess works in marketing, is a native New Yorker, and recently moved from Ohio to California (loving all the pics of Norcal living). She is an excellent writer and I like the clean look of her blog.
4. Heart & Soul

Colleen is a member of the Oiselle Team who is also a DC blogger. A huge Syracuse fan and PR professional, she is currently training for the Alexandria 5K. Colleen also teaches fitness classes and recently posted recaps from her European honeymoon.

Ashley is another DC blogger and also part of the Flock. She also had a huge PR at the Shamrock Half Marathon and has a fun Instagram account.
Are these blogs new to you, or have you been reading them?
