Customer Reviews
Great podcast for those who love running AND those who still love the Mouse...
This is likely the best running podcast out there. This serves as a really helpful tool for those of us aspiring runners who are looking ahead to successful 5K, 10K, Half, and Full-Marathons. Gordon is down-to-earth, a great storyteller, and genuinely sounds like "one of the good guys". Thanks for the laughs, sharing your experiences along the way.
Right on the mark!
As another 40 something,slightly overweight, and balding mid pack runner who is also a Disney fan, this podcast hits right on target. A perfect mix of the two topics that make a podcast I can listen to while running or driving to work. Thanks Gordon!
Great Podcast
This is a great podcast Gordon will keep you laughing he is a funny fella. Just want to say that he is one of the ones that has really enspired me. And I just want to say thanks Gordon.
Thanks
Jeff
