Just read Ian's account of the highland race and thorough thoroughly enjoyed it. It got me thinking, are there any good blogs out there that are worth reading?

For general outdoor biking and running this is good, if USA based with occasional Euro mountain running:

And I am enjoying this blog from a lady who is walking the PCT which I got into via her 10,000 mile fright train ebook:

So, a bit USA girly bias but it keeps me out of mischief.
