• Ep. 18 The Sweet Sounds of Andy from Georgia
    Nov 27 2024

    I mean, just listen to the voice. Even if you aren't into running, Andy has a great calm southern gift of gab.

    But he also comes with amazing stories and sage advice. Remember, just because everyone else is doing it, does that mean you have to as well?

  • Ep. 17 Why do I look like a Muppet?
    Nov 24 2024

    This, by far, is my favorite solo episode to date. I think I'm finally hitting a rhythm and have successfully gotten my retake count to the single digits.


    Big bracket episode! I catch you all up and review not 2, but 4 races; Run for the Roses, Run to Read, Headbanger 5K, and the Des Plaines Dash. You will not believe the stories about the last two! I'm very lucky to have photo proof!

  • Ep. 16 Yep, Dan sure is "again a runner"!
    Nov 19 2024

    Grateful am I to have guests that understand tech issues ! This was the second attempt and I was "running" on fumes after being the photographer that morning at the Fast Track Cross Country race presented by Xtra Mile Running!

    I’m so glad Dan reminded me of our first interaction. There’s something special about bonding over 14-inch hot dogs—laughing, cracking jokes, and sharing a ridiculous moment that made it all feel so special (thanks ChatGPT).

  • Ep. 15 Community is cool, cool, cool
    Nov 17 2024

    What is there to say about this episode besides please, please, please watch it if you can? Absolutely listen, but you will be missing lots of facial expressions, a background change, and a case of the shakes!


    Yup, this one has three guests and we discuss the importance of support and volunteering as part of our running community.


    Enjoy!

  • Ep. 14 When did this podcast become about bowling?
    Nov 12 2024

    I got to sit down with one of my oldest friends Ben to discuss all things running, and even some bowling!

    This episode is unfortunately without video because you really do have to be careful about which files you delete. But it is a great listen and I hope you enjoy!

  • Ep. 13 Monkeys, Cheer Tunnels, and Heartbreak
    Nov 10 2024

    Oof, this one hurt. Pod casting is hard; my computer crashed hard today and I ended up losing two unedited episodes.

    But I have the best guests ever and they will be redone! For now, enjoy learning which race from last week moves forward. The match up this week is the Garmin Half in Olathe, Kansas and the Cellcom Green Bay Half.

    And just because I'm talking about Green Bay, you should still listen.

  • Ep. 12 The Editor, the wife, and the spork
    Nov 7 2024

    The retake! I sat down again with my editor, Marty, and his wife, Liz. If you haven't had a chance to watch the video on any of the podcasts, this is the one. I'm not sure Liz's eyes could have gotten any wider at the thought of a post-race measurement session.

  • Ep. 11 The Power of Thor's Hammer
    Nov 3 2024

    Welcome to Sunday! This week my friend Chelsea hopped on to help me announce the winner of last week's matchup.

    Then I discuss U-Sole and the Viking Dash.

    It may have been born out of exhaustion, but this is a great episode!
