You see, blogging every day is not the hard part. I could easily blog every day. Want to see a picture of Ollie's weird sleeping positions every night? (Ollie is my dog, if you imagined something else, you might be the weirdo.) That would be easy. Point, shoot, upload. Blog done. Want to see how my hair looks when I wake up in the morning? (Trust me, you don't.) Want to see what I ate for every meal every day of the week? Probably not, but if you do, check out my Instagram account. Blogging is easy, making it meaningful and worth reading is the hard part. Did I mention I wasn't complaining? I am excited to share with you my second post of the challenge.
November 2: Favorite Inspiring Quote
Since the invention of Pinterest (only the best invention EVER) inspirational quotes are a dime a dozen.

Ha ha. Just kidding. I have a real inspirational quote to share. This particular quote is broadcast across my blog header every single day. If you read this blog, you've probably noticed it. I like it so much, it inspired a blog post Are You a Real Runner? Spoiler Alert: If you run, the answer is yes.

Look at that. Done with my second post of the challenge and it is only 8PM. I'm off to hang out with hubby and enjoy my Friday night. Two words: Fire. Pit. If anyone needs me, I'll be out back with a glass of wine. Have a nice weekend friends. See you tomorrow."If you run, you are a runner. It doesn't matter how fast or how far. It doesn't matter if today is your first day or if you've been running for twenty years. There is no test to pass, no license to earn, no membership card to get. You just run." - John Bingham

Love this quote. I keep meaning to incorporate it into a blog post, I just haven't done it yet. Good luck with the challenge.
ReplyDeleteJohn Bingham is one of my favorite writers... long time fan. Hope you enjoyed your Friday night!
ReplyDeleteI have been running for about one month now and I have my first 10k Race next Saturday. I love reading your blog and I love the quote as answers my question of when do I become a real runner.
ReplyDeleteHave a good night :) xx
Love this! Good luck with your challenge. I don't think I could blog everyday but I guess that's why they call it a challenge ;) That Abe Lincoln quote always cracks me up, lol!
ReplyDeleteI got so confused with that Abe Lincoln quote for a minute... Because there was no such thing as Internet when he was alive, LOL!
ReplyDeleteI love this quote because it reminds me that I do not have to compare myself to serious runners who go farther or faster then I do. Just because I don't do races (completed my first 5k last month) monthly but prefer solo, casual runs, it doesn't make me less of a runner.
ReplyDeleteOh yes! This is a great quote. :)
ReplyDeletePlaning my first half marathn w/wife, your post was encouraging
