You’ve been my inspiration throughout SO many runs and during SO many setbacks/injuries.
I’ve been a reader of your blog for a few years now and am slightly more than ridiculously happy for how happy YOU are.
Who doesn’t need/want a new pair of running sneakers all day everyday?!?
Kat Pallikkathayil
Congratulations on your wedding! You are a beautiful bride!
With all of the terrible things happening in the world around us, running has been the one thing that has helped me find some peace and hope for the future! I wish for everyone to be able to find something to give them peace and hope as well and then maybe we can be the ones to change the world!

I loved each and every one … but I have to say your mom is the BEST..her post is the first I ever commented on and I’ve been reading you for a LONG time! I would LOVE to win shoes for my teenage daughter who is running cross country this fall. The team has been practicing all summer to prepare for the fall and I know she’d love a pair of real running shoes.

Long time reader here- congratulations on your wedding and hope you had a lovely and relaxing vacation!
Jess
Hey Janae, I’ve been reading HRG for about four years now, and I’d just like to say thank you for continuously being such a positive athletic role model. I started running 6 years ago when I was 28, when I thought there was no way I would ever do more than a 5k. After a year, I ran a half marathon, and up until last summer, when I was pregnant with my son, I have run a half every year since. I am hoping to get back into running this fall, since baby has taken up so much time and recuperation, and I know I will be looking at HRG archives from when you first had Brooke for inspiration. Thank you for all that you do, and I look forward to seeing where your feet take you next!
Lauren Acre

Winners are too busy to be sad, too optimistic to be fearful, too positive to be doubtful and too determined to be defeated!

Hi! First time commenting, but I wanted to say how much I enjoy your blog. Your positive spirit shines through each post and is much needed at this stage in my life. I am also a huge fan of Brooks.

I just switched over to Brooks due to them making an injury feel better. I am in need of a new pair
Kate L.
Just recently got back into running after having a baby, and could really use a new pair of running shoes.
Caroline
I would love a new pair of shoes, but, if I win I will give them to a friend of mine who is a new runner and struggling to keep with it. A new pair of shoes would definitely inspire her since she is on a budget and only has one pair at the moment. Thanks so much for the giveaway, and congratulations to you both – I hope you have a lifetime of happiness (and running! ;)
