Summary
Anthony and Steven have been going for runs for almost two decades. But running in middle age just hits different. So let’s talk about it: what are the specific challenges of running NOW? And what are the (many) benefits? And are there any benefits that don’t feel as…beneficial anymore?
All this plus a Shorts Summer update, Post-Its clarifications, a new Gomerism (from one of the Gomers’ moms) that is bound to become part of the lore of the podcast, and the pleasures of taking a really long time to read a book about magic dogs. Oh, and some Head-On-Collision chaaaaat! Don’t forget to tune in next week for a rewind to Season 1 Episode 2!
