A lot of discussions this week around the problems of being an adult when all you want to do is ride! 

Cue the Wild Hogs movie here :-)

Also, getting past the man attitude of going to a doctor when things hurt, the problems around racing at different destinations and when to draw the line, and choosing an appropriate race distance to meet your specific goals vs your ego.

For something different this week John and Rob are joined by the podcast superstars Peter Villa and Bryan Gould of the How Was Your Run Today show (found on all your most important podcast apps). The guys engage in talk about (shocker) running, destination races, Millinocket Maine Half Marathon, getting started, and all things in between. Check out their show and make sure to give them a review and let them know you heard about them through teamE4E (and while you're at it go to iTunes and leave us a nice review as well). 

If you were lucky enough to be on the Facebook group while we recorded this, you go to see (and hear) John's portion of this show on Live.

You are SO lucky ... 

While we continue to figure out how to Live Record, this show Rob and John talk about Whispering Pines, Gasparilla, arriving late to races and pushing your way to the front, rude vendor techniques, meeting longtime friends for the first time, and the problem with "adulting".

This is an episode where John and Rob are just talking about whatever comes to mind, from longtime listener Kristine Cox's peaking for Gasparilla, to Pavlov's Dogs theory and how the cell phone is the new bell, to having dead legs and running through them.

Luke Humphrey is many things; a member of several top 25 NCAA cross country teams, a 2:14:38 marathoner, and a three-time Olympic trial qualifier. He is also an advocate and coach who uses the Hansons Marathon Method to help runners of all abilities reach their running goals.

Luke sits down with Rob to discuss his history in the sport and the nuances of the Hansons Method, which is outlined in the books he has co-authored with Keith and Kevin Hanson.

A shorter show tonight but filled with things that will surely set you on edge and make you talk.

John gives a short race report on his 10K over the weekend and why he feels the personal bests are coming with each event, but he also admits to not eating prior to racing. So there's that, too.

Both John and Rob listen to the Fatman Chronicles podcast with Pete and Gretchen and they discuss something Pete brought up in a recent episode about a diminished feeling while training at times. Our guys have an opinion on that also.

And while you're at it, check out their show also.

No water while you eat? If Tom "the second coming" Brady believes in it then it must be true, right?

On this week's show, John and Rob discuss their specific training and how each is coming along in the timeline.

John then wonders aloud why there are books geared toward specific genders (i.e, "Running for Women") since gender plays no part in how he designs a training plan for his clients.

Ron might be switching his Pittsburgh race to one in Texas on the same weekend for the chance to run shoulders with Chip Gaines. Since this is the weekend after John's triathlon, he is pondering joining him there for the weekend. And if that is not enough of a teamE4E group racing meetup, John is going to join Rob in PA late June for the Dam Tri.

The show ends with a talk on the group being all-inclusive and welcoming, unlike other groups out there in Facebook land that is becoming increasingly condescending and, well, mean-spirited.

John and Rob save the world this week. But that was before the recording started. So what you are left with, dear listeners, is a discussion about depression, being selfish and stubborn, working through food cravings, and a talk about the issue with soy in our daily diet.

Welcome to 2018 and thank you for being a part of Endurance for Everyone and teamE4E!

Is sugar going the way of tobacco, and why do some insist on pushing sweeteners as a "healthy" alternative to sugar usage. After a short football geeking out John and Rob discuss why sugar seems to be an issue still with some people, not in its use but in its ability to turn some people into zealots. The bottom line is that your body is much like a computer; you put garbage in you are going to get garbage out. It all starts with food, and even if you are lucky enough to not show outward signs of damage, what you eat DOES affect you.

The discussion also starts with the use of treadmills, and indoor training in general and how it can both aid and hurt you when training for a race.  

A "Hash Race"? What is that??

This week the show will focus on a couple of updates within the show's hosts; John's recent 25K Trail Race and Rob's first week of marathon training. 

How did it go for each of them? Tune in to find out!

Then to completely confuse you, John starts explaining the meaning and use of vertical oscillation readings.
