This time, we are talking to Montana at Pretty Lil Mudder! This is another story on how social media can bring you awesome friends and friendship!
Their first meeting was in June 2013 on a dolphin tour cruise in Florida where they both live. They met in real life first and it took a while for them to become close but now they hang out all the time and talk running and blogging.
There was no real issue about safely meeting in person because the meetups usually happen in groups. Montana wasn't too worried about it. She went to a lot of meetups in 2013 with other ladies in the group. A few of them are still good friends with Montana today!
When asked what it is about Krystal that inspires Montana, she said that Krystal's running and blogging inspired Montana to run and blog. And Montana followed Krystal's timeline- she started with 5k races and moved on to do half marathons. Montana has been the same way. They learn from each other and love running together!
They run together all the time! Krsytal only lives an hour from Montana so it's not hard to get together. They ran Montana's first and Krystal's fourth half together at Iron Girl Clearwater and Krystal also did her first mud run at Rugged Maniac with Montana.
You can follow along with Montana and Krystal on their blogs or on Twitter:
