    41 BURNOUT

    Yeah, you guessed it... we're both a little burnt out.  I mean, we still love running, but we're re-evaluating our relationships with our favorite sport.  If you're anywhere near as obsessive as we are, then you might be facing runner's burn out too!  Check in and see how we're coping. Don't stink! What do you think?  We'd love to hear from you!

    39 Happy! Happy! Joy! Joy!

    Hello?  Is this podcast on?  Jump in as Jim and Chris return to their mics after some much needed time off.  Running, and podcasting can both be a source of stress as well as joy.  We took time away form both to try and balance out life's other needs.  Join us as we talk about finding our way back into running. Jim loves his Speedland GS Oak trail shoes!  I just checked their site and they're sold out of size 10 for every shoe they make!  They must be doing something right.
