I also like writers who don't take life too seriously and are funny. They are my favorite. <br /><br />Like you, I have a "read always", "try to read every day" and "read when I can" and if I get more than a few days behind in one of the two latter folders, I just delete. <br /><br />I could comment every blog, but I like to be thoughtful about my responses. BUT...I ALWAYS comment new readers and always respond to questions. I think it is important to respond to those who care enough to leave comments.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528976842290078378.post-44567003248647509932010-04-10T13:34:45.648-07:002010-04-10T13:34:45.648-07:00I'm always looking for runners who are consist...I'm always looking for runners who are consistent, passionate, and motivating. I love tips, advice, strategies, and quick food tips are great too. Most of the runners in my local area are half into running. With bloggieville, I can connect with people who are as crazy as I am about running.

Those are the ones I make a point to read every time there is a new post (although I have to be honest that I don't always leave a comment). Those are the blogs that make me smile or laugh on a regular basis or make me feel like I have gotten to know the blogger because he/she is honest about who they are. There are also a few that are people I can really relate to. That is what keeps me coming back.ihaverunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12353024020794141387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528976842290078378.post-28231458874588702112010-04-09T18:31:56.240-07:002010-04-09T18:31:56.240-07:00I have struggled with that - I want to be active o...I have struggled with that - I want to be active on the blogs that I follow and really am happy with the number of blogs that I currently follow.

I do have some faves, you being one of them, but a lot of times I'm drawn to blogs that keep their posts short. When I'm out of town for a while though I usually have to skip over a lot. This past weekend I got home and had 189 posts to read, that's just too much reading for me so I browsed them, checked out my faves and read the shorter posts then marked all as read. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do, especially if you want time to run. :)Alliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08707434221124126774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528976842290078378.post-12187499038187863692010-04-09T17:10:06.480-07:002010-04-09T17:10:06.480-07:00Oh, if I tell you why I'm giving the heads-up ...Oh, if I tell you why I'm giving the heads-up on a post that I've been thinking over for weeks. Basically, though, it's reading what others who have the same interests that I do go through. Some remind me of me when I was younger; some are at the same stage that I am; none are what I might become (okay, I just dated myself).<br />And, like Katie said, positive is a real plus in pulling me back.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08183174254927897857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1528976842290078378.post-60965320974117237722010-04-09T14:54:23.460-07:002010-04-09T14:54:23.460-07:00I'm with Tonia - I usually feel a connection t...I'm with Tonia - I usually feel a connection to the blogger for some reason or another. Either their personal story or their way of writing. I have some that I am a faithful follower of (like you) and others that I just glance at every so often.<br />I always look forward to your positiveness. I am a positive person and I try to surround myself with others who are positive or make me a better person, too :) Have a wonderful weekend!<br />P.S. we have called my little nephew since he was born Bugga-Boo, and now his nickname all the time is Buggs!

Many of my faves are completely different and I love them for different reasons. <br /><br />I love readin run recaps, seeing photos, reading experiences of those much faster than me, reading about new places, how people find the time to run, decide on goals, etc. And sometimes I just enjoy a little bit of RANDOM!<br /><br />have a great weekend!Marlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230997094889375925noreply@blogger.com
