I BLOG because it motivates me to run, to continue running and to improve my running.
Does it matter if anyone reads my posts??? Not really, but it’s so cool when someone does read what you have to say and you actually inspire them to run.
This is an email that I received yesterday:
Hi Darlene!
I’ve been reading your blog for awhile now and I must say THANKS for the inspiration. I’m just getting into running. I turned 46 a month ago and am one of those “adult-onset” runners. I’m following the Couch-to-5k program (in Week 6 now) and I’m really enjoying it! I’m trying to absorb all the info and advice that I can. I came across your blog one day while looking for info on running in the Albany area. Thanks again! I hope to say “hi” to you at Diva Night.
So now I guess I also BLOG to inspire others to run, to continue running and to improve their running!!!!!!


I read your blog too and love the motivation and inspiration. I do love when I realize someone actually reads what I’ve written. But, I do write for me.

Of course you have fans! You are amazing. You race as much or more than anyone I know. I can’t wait to hear your embarrassing story.
