Blog Birthday Bonanza!

I'm one! Or, I should say, this blog is one. I just turned ahem-cough-cough, my son turned two, and now the Happy Runner is one! It's birthday central around here.

Yessiree. One. I've been blogging here for a year. 254 posts. That's a lot of words.

And I love it. Man, oh man, do I love my blog. I love being able to think and write and read about running the way I'm able to as a blogger. I've met (virtually) so many cool people and been the beneficiary of advice, suggestions, tips and support from the online community and that just plain rocks. Rocks, I tell you!

So, since it rocks so much, I have no plans to stop. I'm going to keep on keepin' on with this running blogging thing.

The Happy Runner "My Readers Rock!" Giveaway

In celebration of my bloggy birthday, and because I really do think you all rock, I'm saying, "Happy birthday!" to one reader. Yup. That's right. I have a box of birthday goodies to give away!

The box contains:

Two cans of Solixir
One tub of Oikos Greek yogurt (coupon)
Three bottles of Mix1
One three-tube set of slick, sparkly Sephora lip gloss (sorry, guys, you can give them away!)
One bar of chocolate (coupon)
Two single serving packs of Barney Butter almond butter


You in? Getting in is easy -- leave me a comment and I'll give you an entry. Link to the Happy Runner "My Readers Rock!" giveaway and you'll get two more entries (just let me know). It's that easy! The contest starts now and runs through midnight tomorrow (6/11). I'll announce the runner on Friday, so be sure to check back.

OK, now I might get a little sappy -- I'm so grateful to everyone who visits my site, especially those who take the time to comment and provide me with some (often much-needed) support. It means a lot. I loooooove running alone and will never be a social runner, I know that. But, I've learned that having the support of a running community is something I need. This online one has been great. It's made me a better runner, for sure!

Before I go too far down the sappy road, I'll sign off. Have a great day. Eat a cupcake for me. Or a handful of jelly beans. I'm not picky . . .

I'm looking forward to spending another year with you!
