Just for Funsies: 3 Sites I’ve Loved Lately
Just wanted to duck in to share some fun stuff I’m stumbled across on the Internets lately.
My Year on Twitter

You can see some of the stuff you’ve tweeted about most over the course of this year.
Not surprisingly, my list included #blogher12 (which I live-tweeted like a maniac), miles (which I ran a bunch of), and #fitfluential and #runchat, hashtags I used often.
Instamotivation

Instamotivation – an awesome little site by the Greatist folks for…Insta-motivation.
Run Bayou

Fine, I’m always obsessed with running calculators. This one is Run Bayou, and it’s not the first time I’ve written about it. (Side note: they’ve updated McMillan. Not sure how I feel about the new design.) I’m eyeing a 10-miler in January, and I’d like a goal for it. I ran the Army Ten-Miler in October, but I didn’t full-out race it because I was running a marathon the next week, and I’d like a good PR right about now. I put in a few times, but I finally decided my 10K PR was the best predictor of my other race times, since it was a pretty solid race and it predicted a marathon time within 13 seconds of my actual marathon time.
What are your favorite sites right now, running or otherwise?

I'm loving the instamotivation site. So funny:)
Love typing fitspiration into pintrest, plus I love food gawker (drooling at my desk) and a bit of daily mail online for some celeb gossip!
I am loving travel websites.. I am trying to plan a vacation in February so I keep looking for a good deal!
Oh, that Twitter one looks FUN!
I am totally obsessed with running calculators. Especially since I am running my first marathon in January! I know I shouldn't have a time goal but I definitely do!
I am running that 10 miler as well, its 2 weeks before the marathon and thought it would be a good one.
VERY fun! Thanks for sharing these!
I recently discovered the marathon talk podcast and website, so I have been on there and listening to back episodes. Their Jantastic and winter motivations stuff is great!
