"Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers."
-Charles W. Eliot
"If you run, you are a runner. It doesn't matter how fast or how far. It doesn't matter if today is your first day or if you've been running for twenty years. There is no test to pass, no license to earn, no membership card to get. You just run."
-John Bingham

Hi, Blogging World!

I'm Amber. I love to read and always have! I just started running about 2 years ago, consistently for about a year. Before that, I only ran when I had to--why would anyone run for fun? I did however subject myself to 5+ hours in the pool every day for oh, about 7 years!
Here's a picture of me, so you can put a face to the name :) I'm the girl, in case you didn't catch that. The guy in the picture is my boyfriend, Aaron and we're standing at the black sand beach in Hawaii. Breathtaking view huh?


As I figure out how to work everything on here, I'll be posting hopefully daily, or as close to daily as possible. I don't know if anyone will read this, but my friends and family get tired of listening to me talk about running stuff and the next great book I've been reading, so hopefully, someone out there can listen to me instead!
