It's difficult to know whether or not you fit in and belong sometimes. Guess What? You belong. I'll tell you why.

Is to quit talking and begin doing. This week my guest and I talk all about how and why we made the jump from couch potatoes to rabid runners!

Hello. It's been a while. I'm here to apologize, tell you where I've been, and set goals that we can reach together. Join me?

There's a little voice in your head that's going to tell you to give up along the way. This episode will help you learn to ignore it.

15 weeks ago, I set a goal. Then a roadblock happened. We can either let those define us or figure out how to get around them. I'm choosing the latter. This week my friend Jen Hoffman from HealthyMoving.com stops by to talk all about how I can get back on track.

Spoiler Alert: I didn't run this week. But at least Mike Tyson didn't bite my ear off.

This was an episode I did not want to record. I want to be totally honest though, so here we go...

Sometimes it seems like our goals are just too far away. We can lose focus if we wait until we achieve that goal to be proud of ourselves. That's why celebrating the steps along the journey are so important!

In the immortal words of Randy Pausch, "Brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something."

Everyone who finishes an endurance event gets the same medal. It doesn't matter what place you come in, as long as you finish!

Training for and running in a distance race is going to hurt. A lot. So why do we do it? I'll give you my answer to that question on this show!

A few weeks ago my kids and I watched "March of the Penguins" on cable. I realized that absolutely everything in life would be better if Morgan Freeman narrated it, including my long runs!

There's a word that I've heard runners say when talking about themselves for years and it absolutely drives me up a wall. Okay, okay, I might use this same word on occasion. This week, I will forbid you from ever using it again!

This week's format will be a bit different. I had a mouth injury this week and I'm afraid you wouldn't understand me if I recorded a show! This is an episode of my Ear To There Disney Podcast I recorded with my runner friends back in 2016. Enjoy it and I'll be back with a standard episode next week!

When you set impossible goals, be prepared to stumble and fall along the way. This week I hit my first major bump in the road.

It's all about accountability. Sign up for the race. Pay the money. Make that commitment and tell people about it. It will drive you to keep going.

Sometimes it's hard to tune out the negative thoughts. This episode will help convince you that no matter what, you are a "real" runner.

In order to make a big change in our lives, we need to start by setting an "impossible" goal.

This introductory episode will tell you what Running For Sandwiches is all about. Enjoy!
