To say I’m into the running scene would be a little bit of an understatement. I read a lot and follow the industry a little bit obsessively. Today, I decided to compile a list of running blogs and website that I enjoy.

I read Runner’s World “Racing News“  almost everyday. This blog compiles race results and news stories about the elites. By reading this, one could find out that Deena Kastor named her baby Piper Bloom and Scott Jurek is running the Tokyo Marathon.

Mark Remy writes Runner’s World “RW Daily“  most days. He also wrote The Runner’s Rule Book. This blog is decidedly less formal than “Racing News.” Remy blogs about National Pie Day and bizarre tales of running. He often has immature jokes and corny puns. Please don’t go to this blog seeking mature, intellectual running information. Go there for fun. (Mark, if you read this, please know I said this to reduce the angry comments telling you to grow up.)

Nate Jenkins‘ blog at Running Times is part running log that chronicles his workouts and part runner’s philosophy. He does mega-mileage, and shares his thoughts and struggles.
“Run the Edge” by Adam Goucher and Tim Catalano  has “moedutainspiration” as its state goal. That means they want to motivate, educate, entertain, and inspire runners. Goucher and Catalano ran together at Colorado University under Coach Whetmore. They have some deep thoughts on running. They also have a ton of fun and post some hilarious stuff. I look forward to seeing this blog grow.

A former Gazellian, Sloan, also has a new blog called The Sole Search.  Sloan now lives in Maryland and travels extensively. Her posts on running in new places and exploring the country are pretty fun. I know many of the readers of this blog miss her, so check out her posts.

Deena Kastor and Ian and Julia Dobson of Running and Racing with the Elites also have blogs. It is fun to read about the travels and travails of professional runners. I guess it’s my version of People magazine to check out these blogs from time to time.

Click on a few of these links. Be involved in the greater running community. If you wanted to spread the word about our blog, that would be sweet, too.
