yo!
since i posted earlier today, i won’t bore you with another long, rambling post. instead, i want to focus on a couple lovely utah ladies! as you might know, i like to feature utah bloggers every so often. i love reading all blogs, but there is something about local blogs that really floats my boat. of course, you don’t have to be a local to enjoy these blogs. check them out!
name & location: Janae Jacobs, Provo, UT
tell us about your blog: A blog dedicated to RUNNING, eating, fitness, daily randomness and more re-fueling.
how long have you been blogging? I have been blogging for 13 months.
what are two NOT TO BE MISSED posts of yours?
- NYC marathon recap (basically because it is still all I can think about): http://www.hungryrunnergirl.com/2011/11/nyc-marathon-recap.html
- Because I love race recaps….our Halloween Half marathon dressed as Piñatas: http://www.hungryrunnergirl.com/2011/10/half-marathon-recap.html

******************
name & location: My name is Shah’ada – I’m an Egyptian American with a rockin’ cool name. I currently live in Logan.
tell us about your blog: My blog chronicles my physical, emotional and mental journey from an unhappy, obese 20 something to a 26 year old marathoner who fully embraces life. I blog less about actually losing weight and more about my journey of maintaining what I’ve lost, what keeps me happy, and how I stay sane :)
how long have you been blogging? I’ve been blogging for 7 months now.
what are two NOT TO BE MISSED posts of yours?

- top of utah marathon race recap: http://from280to26point2.com/2011/09/19/top-of-utah-marathon/

xo. janetha g.









Thanks for having me Janetha!! Gotta love Utah bloggers:)
You know I gotta comment on my girl, Janae! Hey Janae!
thanks so much janetha :) let’s get a utah blogger meet up going!!
WHat a rockstar she is! I love her 5 things she can’t live without, some of the ones she mentioned are mine too!
i am guessing you mean shah’ada’s things.. although maybe you meant janae’s, but my bet is shah’ada’s!
I love the local bloggers – always neat to check out a new blog.
I knew you’d have a little bit of a different attitude this week on football, and of course any reason to have a party :)
And WIN they did! They rather stomped them. I hope they’re getting sized for their Superbowl rings, ha ha!
Thanks for the spotlights! :) Love your blog…I haven’t commented recently. I kind of like hiding in the bushes….creepy? naaaaaahhhhh. Anyway, I had a questions. I have not done a search so forgive me if you have already covered this but what does your blogging schedule look like? I have tried blogging but something gets in the way and I end up stopping. :( I suck I guess. Have any tips?
Hey lady! Always love to hear from you. I typically blog every evening Monday through Thursday, then in the early afternoon on Friday, then *sometimes* will post on the weekend, depending on what I am up to. Sometimes I post 1-2 times over the weekend, sometimes not at all! I rarely (Almost never!) post more than once a day. Also, if I am busy and don’t have time to post or don’t have anything to say, I don’t worry about missing a day. I used to, but honestly.. life comes before blogging and it’s not worth stressing over!
i’m loving this posts… and of course hungry runner girl :)
still am trying to get over your love of the packers!
you mean my husband’s love? haha. i love the packers through marriage! i don’t even like football!
NICE. So sad I moved and can’t be featured, but I sure do love the Utahns!! :)
I love that you feature local blogs…and probably am a bit jealous that you’ve got other bloggers around you to feature. I do love New Hampshire, but it’s not known for it’s bloggers, haha.
