Sorry, But It's Painful
I really wanted to like this podcast. Many of the glowing reviews would have one believe that this podcast is on par with far superior programming available around the web. That was the impression I got, and boy was I wrong. I popped this podcast in for a quick 7 mile run and found the subject matter so depressing and about as far from motivating as I can possibly imagine. I understand that the format is supposed to be free form with the speaker discussing the things that come up, but the constant straying away from anything related to running is annoying. This podcast made a 7 mile run feel like a marathon. I had to work just to get through it. Others had told me that maybe I stumbled upon a weaker episode. The problem is, I am not willing to risk another listen that will cause me to want to jump into the frozen lake I am circling just to end the misery ringing in my ears. Maybe I'll give it another chance while I'm at work or something (but definitely not while running). If I do, I will update this review. Until then, my opinion on the podcast stands.

If you are a runner, or just a wantabee runner, you need to listen to this podcast. In fact, I would say go back and listen to all of the previous podcasts as well because you will become as informed about running as you will be entertained.
