I also disclose the nature of my blog and any advertising and my relationship with the manufacturer or seller of any product that I endorse on this blog. My policies for reviews and endorsements are as follows: 

1. This is a personal blog written solely by me. I enjoy running, writing and reviewing. The three work together and I enjoy the opportunity to write. Occasionally I may post content written by others, but I always edit such content as needed so that it meets my personal standards and will disclose where a guest writer has been invited.

2. I may be offered and may accept trial products free-of-charge from manufacturers for the purpose of conducting reviews. I also may turn down offers of free products if I feel that they are not suitable for this blog or its readers. Many of the free products I accept may be given away after reviews are written. 

3. If a product was provided to me free-of-charge by a manufacturer, seller, or marketing firm for the purposes of testing and writing a review, I will disclose this in the body of the post. 

4. No manufacturer or seller of a product will influence the form or outcome of any review that I write. I strive to write reviews that are both honest and thorough, and I only endorse products that I genuinely feel will be of benefit to my readers. Not all things are created equal or work for everyone. If I don't like it or it doesn't work out for me I'll write about it. 

5. I may choose to promote the websites that stock the products that I enjoy using so that my readers can also made their own decisions about the products that they use and where they obtain them from.
