I love reading blogs of all kinds, I find other people's real life experiences to be so interesting. I don't have too many running ones on my list though, anyone have one to recommend?

    I wanted to reply to this all day but hadn't the chance to link anything yet! One of my favourites is http://www.scienceofrunning.com/ I just like his style of writing and I walk away having learned something. In terms of motivation, a fellow female, Anna Frost, who runs ultras along side Anton and Killan. :D They are all buddies. I love watching their vids too. Her blog> http://frostysfootsteps.wordpress.com/

    What are yours? I tend to read more on forums for overall learning or relating than I do blogs, I'm just terrible at following my subscriptions.

    Try Phil McCarthy's blog (ultramarathoner who won 6-day race in New York this year and was just featured in ESPN Magazine recently):http://longdistancevoyager.blogspot.com

    Phil has previously won the American national championship for the 48-hr race and has competed on the American national team for ultras around the world. Very inspirational marathoner & ultrarunner.

    I'm going to start following these as well. I actually wish I had chronicled my own humble beginnings of not being able to do 1 mile to where I am now.
