Sometimes it feels like a numbers game – there’s a lot we want to change about our lives as we chase health in middle age, but how many things should we be taking on at a the same time? 10? 20? 30? 1000? We seek out what experts are saying and also seek to know ourselves when it comes to our high hopes (and long lists of goals) for healthy change. Plus shirtless Baby Steps and a celebration of the Virtual Race gone by. Take that beer out the fridge and Happy Running!

On the Two Gomers Podcast we talk a lot about how our phones suck up our energy, time, and attention, and how that’s bad for middle age health journey. So why it so hard to just stop looking at it so much? Because nature abhors a vacuum – you have to fill that screen-hole with something else. In this ep we talk about how putting pen to paper can be so much better than putting finger to screen. Plus Songs to Run To and of course, a ton of fun stuff along the way.

We all have full schedules, plenty of commitments, and busy lives. On this episode we’re facing what happens when our schedules are TOO full, we are OVERcommitted, and the pace of our busy lives starts to have negative effects on ourselves and the people we care about. Taking a cue from some of our favorite teachers and writers, we tackle the tyranny of the urgent. How can eradicate unhealthy hurry from our lives, especially as we seek to embrace middle age? Plus power washing, frisbee throwing, flute playing, and hat wetting. It’s all here!

There was too much gold in them there hills to put this episode anywhere but the main feed. The Gomernation thoughtfully, deeply, and often humorously shared with us advice, counsel and encouragement they would give to themselves in their 20s, and it’s all so good. Enjoy this Listener Feedback-centric episode, plus Baby Steps of the Week and What’s Giving Us Life!

Steven’s beard is going grey. That happens when you hit middle age. So why is it so hard? And what, if anything, should he do about it? The guys talk a lot about self-image in this one…including the differences between men and women, and wild vs. distinguished. Plus, Songs To Run To and spring jacket chaaaaaaat! Happy Greying!

We step into the Delorean and try not to unravel the very fabric of the space time continuum and destroy the entire universe while giving our younger selves a little but of advice. No sports betting here, we promise! Just heartfelt, gentle words of encouragement toward health that we hope won’t cheat our younger selves out of the amazing gifts we received in our 20s…including failure, unmet expectations, and mistake after mistake after mistake. Plus an all-time Gomer’s Tip and Solar Eclipse Chaaaat!

For those of us in midlife, we know: our bodies ain’t what they used to be. So why are so many of us so resistant to learning more? Why, when we are hurt or suffering, do we ignore it rather than get help or advice? Is ignorance really bliss?

Join the guys as they talk openly about their own barriers to going to the doctor, their desires to be healthy, and how they feel about people messing with their butts. Plus, a Gomer Update and What’s Bringing Us Life This Week! Happy Colonoscoping!
