Are you on Twitter?
I am. Some of you are not because you simply feel you cannot add another social media site to your life. I totally get that.
Still. I love Twitter.
I don’t Tweet nearly enough. (Or, as one of us at our little bloggy meet-up Thursday thought it was called, “[email protected]” I won’t tell who, but it wasn’t Malibu Barbie.) Anyway, I always forget.
But I love heading to Twitter for inspiration. Or to just jump in the middle of someone’s conversation. Or to post my posts or random thoughts. It’s great. Here’s a list of some of the runners I follow (sorry if I miss anyone — please leave your Twitter name in the comments if I missed you!):
- Chelsea from Will Run for Food @Chelsea_c
- Zoe from Run, Zoe, Run @RunZoeRun
- Michelle at The Running Diva @The_RunningDiva
- LB from Muddy Runner @RunnerLuis
- Wifey from Run, Wifey, Run @AskWifey
- Sarah Bowen Shea from Run Like a Mother @SBSOnTheRun
- Courtney from Run, Courtney, Run @runcourtrun
- Kristin at Ultra Runner Girl @UltraRunnerGirl
- Carolina Girl from Ramblings of a 30-Something Carolina Girl @Carolina_Tweets
- Shawna from Moving 4 Life @ShawnaSimpson
- Ryan Hall the long distance runner extraordinaire @ryanhall3
- Bethany and Ryan from Our Love on the Run @ourloveontherun
I know I’m forgetting so many people! Help me fill in the list!
The other cool thing you can do on Twitter is narrow down the conversations so you are only seeing ones about running. Just search #running or #momsrunning or #rlam. And #runchat is another good one.
If you’re already on Twitter, look me up @momvsmarathon!

I'm out there too! @runnerteri
I will look you up…I really don't get Twitter..but you have made it a little more intriguing to me….
I'm a new runner and training for my first half in May! I'm on twitter too @heathercrooks02Happy Running!!
Twitter is so fun! And what's even more fun? Tweeting WHILE running. haha 😉 See you on the tweet side!
Sometimes I wish I could just redirect my blog to my Twitter. It would just work better that way…
Thanks for the shout-out to #runchat. I (@RunningBecause) co-moderate it twice a month (2nd/4th Sundays) with @iRunnerBlog, but I am enjoying seeing people use the tag every day to talk about running.
I'm a running tweeter:Rebecca @fitmother(fittobeamother.com) I love tweet inspiration!
Love it! New Twitter friends. Keep the list going!

Thanks for shout-out, Kerrie! You might also want to follow @DimityontheRun, my co-author. I'm contemplating 30-Day Shred. Tough, though!
I am there (@lisarg) I already follow you.I don't tweet a lot. I like to read it, especially when I am bored somewhere. I still don't completely get the hype.
Thanks for the shout!!
I just made an account and know nothing about how to use [email protected]
Great idea for a post! Thanks for putting me on the list. I LOVE Twitter, too! I'm following some but will add your folks.Winks & Smiles,Wifey
You probably missed me because I just don't tweet enough and you forget I am there, or you are just annoyed enough you try to forget I am there, I really don't want to know which one either :)I am @virtual4now on twitter.I won't try to hijack your post by posting a link, but if others are looking for some twitter runners to follow I put up a post like this on my blog a couple years back and it is a great place to find some runners that tweet. This will no doubt fall into the same category I am sure.Now, I would go tweet…. but I am going to watch a movie. 🙂
I tweet, I blog, I TRY to run. Hi. I'm [email protected] on twitter.
