Every Rose Has Its Thorn

Some might say I tend to stir the pot here in blogland.  I'm thorny.  Maybe a loose cannon.  However you view it, this blog contains posts that readers had opinions about.

Disclaimer: in real life, I am a nice and understated person.  I also keep an open mind, so if you disagree, talk to me and I am often persuaded to change my opinion!  Without further ado:

The time I warn that my controversial posts are not meant to be mean

The time we collectively roasted product-placement on blogs (and many of you defend getting a coach).

The time we all looked back at the hysteria of running blogs in 2012.

The time we all agreed that blogging about "balance" means you probably aren't balanced.

The time I thanked "boys" for reading my blog and then had to thank the "girls" too.

The time I railed on skinnyrunner's Urban Running Blogging Summit

The time I asked, "what the hell is Daily Mile for?"

The time I asked, "what the hell is a Fit Fluential Ambassador?

The time I ungracefully got annoyed that non-runners assume I run only for vanity

The time I called out Oiselle for their questionable contest holding tactics

The time I discussed how eating "healthy" with high mileage in college made me a gross string bean

The time I requested you grow a pair and not compare yourself to runner bloggers

The time I boycotted the big January 1st post

The time I explained why I hate San Francisco

The time I talked about how I have no biological clock 

The time I mildly address my whiteness and race in running blogs

The time I discussed why I might never choose to run the Boston marathon

The time I shared my love for cops and lack of sympathy for Oakland rioters

The time I lament that my family doesn't support my running hobby


And just for fun, 30 random facts about me (some no longer as accurate...)
