A Passion for Running

Who are the visionary founders of the running blog family? Here’s a purely subjective list of 35 blogs based on my best recollection of the ones that have been around the longest and identified themselves as members. Please note a few of them are inactive but I felt compelled to put them on the list anyway due to their early contributions to the RBF. I hope I did not miss anyone so please let me know if I have. Oh, and in celebration of your newfound status, here’s a button you founders can use on your blogs.

Don’t like the button colors? No problem, just go here and make one of your own.
