Summary

A question and an email from Steven’s younger sister prompt this episode, and get us wondering: What if we didn’t do everything (and anything) anyone (and everyone) wanted us to do? Could there be health benefits to saying no in middle age? And how do you tell the difference between what to take on and what to let go?

Plus weeks in review, family camping trips, eating well while on your own, and the benefits of weekly mileage instead of just long weekend runs.
