Humble pie, anyone? The Gomers have a big slice they’d be willing to share. The good news is, most of the Gomernation has forgiven the guys for their insensitivity last week, and after an initial apology from their future selves, they’re ready to move on. Both of them ran a staggering 16 miles in a row this week, and they have tales to tell – some good, some not so good. And that makes them first scared, then motivated, and vice versa.
And don’t forget all the regular features: Week in Review, Eat and Run, Gomers Tips, Listener Feedback, two new Songs to Run To, and two new Rookie Mistakes in the Runners Corner. Happy Running!
This Week’s Monday Survey: What motivates you to keep going during those difficult runs? With the marathon fast approaching, we need all the help we can get!

“You’re only one run away from a good run.” That’s Gomer1’s theory, and Gomer2 hopes it’s true, because it was brutal for him this week. But it makes for good podcast material, right? Join the guys as they process what it means when one of them has a good week and the other, well, DOESN’T. [...]

It’s the one-year anniversary of the Gomers’ Half Marathon, and they celebrate by – how else? – running 13 miles without stopping. It was the longest run in a year for both of them, and you’ll have to tune in to hear how it went. SPOILER ALERT: It went surprisingly well.
Also, don’t miss the return [...]

The Gomers are really getting into the Christmas spirit now, with more discussions about food, music, and movies both classic (White Christmas) and kind of a stretch (The Godfather). Oh, and they ran last week, too. Kind of. Winter has decended upon gomer2, and gomer1 does his best to keep him motivated, even though all [...]
