Blogging Marathon

Blogging Marathon started out of a need to keep myself focused and motivated to blog on this space regularly. I did a 31 day marathon in January and I had about handful of food bloggers joining me for the marathon. It was a general topic and was very interesting not to mention quite easy to do.

Then I saw that the Blogging Marathon really caught on and all of them wanted to do it again the next month. After that there was no stopping. Since it's mostly food bloggers joining me, we thought doing a theme based marathon will be more challenging and interesting for readers.

What started as a month long marathon, has now come to 7 days and 2 or 3 groups. 

 

Interested bloggers can do multiple groups too. The main interest and attraction of this group, are the group discussions, commenting and feedback on the post that's done by the participating bloggers.

From the 17th Edition, we started with 3 day Marathon for 4 weeks. All participating bloggers will have to do two weeks atleast and can do all 4 weeks. Each week it will be 3 continuous days.

If you are interested to join us, please email me when you read the announcement.

Blogging Marathon Edition 27, which falls during April 2013, happens to be a full month Marathon with four different themes for each week.

Apart from regular bloggers who will be blogging full month, we have Baby on board Mommies, who wanted to take two weeks and some are doing alternative days. I have mentioned their names separately.
