Dec 18, 2013
Show notes
Jingle Gomers, Jingle Gomers, Gomers all the way! That’s a new Christmas classic and don’t you forget it!
In this, the second Christmas Special of 2013, the guys are full of cheer and wanting to share it with the world. Anthony discovers something very strange about the bells during cross-country flights. Steven faces an embarrassing situation in the gym shower, and makes an interesting choice. Physical therapists can bring epiphanies, and Tony’s does. There are certain movies one must watch this time of year, whether you’re in your living room or on a stationary bike, and the guys outline them for you, in the usual detail.
Was Jimmy Stewart a Gomer?

It’s that special time of year – when you get to stuff your ears with Gomer cheer! The first 2013 Christmas episode is here!
Steven does his first brick workout and his butt hurts. Anthony shares some reflections of his past life as he remembers his Grandma. We bet you ten bucks you can guess Anthony’s indispensable Christmas albums in this week’s S2R2. The Gomeration’s wish lists are something special. The recorder is the perfect holiday instrument. And Steven has a revelation about one of Anthony’s favorite articles of clothing that changes EVERYTHING.
He was dead the whole time!
Monday Survey – What are YOUR indispensable holiday albums and movies? We want to know so we can talk about them. Happy Festivus!
Season 6: Episode 3 – What the Doctor Ordered
Nov 28, 2013
Show notes
Anthony has some news in this, the third episode of Two Gomers Race a Triathlon. It wouldn’t be a season of the Gomers without one of them “having some news,” would it? Also:
Steven runs to work. It’s snowing in Arizona, but not in Florida…but it is cooler there. There is a sneakier way to shower. The women’s locker room is just as gross as the men’s. Brick workouts do not involve bricks. It’s possible to not eat turkey for Thanksgiving. And the Gomers got a cool present from a listener.
Thanks Holly!
Monday Survey: What’s on your (running, biking and swimming) Holiday wish list? Let us know so we can put it on ours’, too!
Season 6 : Episode 2 – Naked Dudes On My Left, Naked Dudes On My Right
Nov 22, 2013
Show notes
It’s Steven’s turn to brave the gym and the pool, in this, the second episode of Two Gomers Race a Triathlon! Here’s what you’ll hear in Episode 2:
There are easy ways to tell the Gomers apart. Steven has a thing against gyms and needs to get over himself. Anthony has done more multi-event training. The guys don’t know how to breathe, or when. Are women’s locker rooms as open as men’s? 25 yards is nothing like 25 feet. What the heck is a brick workout? Blockbuster Video smells like Subway, and Subway smells like BO, and Pizza Hut smells like memories.
Plus, the return of S2R2s, and Listener Feedback impressions!
There he is.
Monday Survey: Are you doing a Turkey Trot? Tell us about it! We want to know!!!! Happy Running.
Season 6 : Episode 1 – A Before in a Sea of Afters
Nov 16, 2013
Show notes
The wait is over – the Two Gomers are back for Season 6 – Two Gomers Race a Triathlon! Here’s what you’ll hear in this episode:
The guys (re)introduce themselves, talk about how to tell G1 from G2, and give a little GomerHistory. Anthony gives the details on his very first swim at the gym. It is hard to be naked. Luggage is a good way to carry around your swim trunks. Swim trunks may not be the best thing to wear while training for a triathlon. It is hard to breathe. Goggles rule, but Gomers are SLOW.
These are the goggles we’re supposed to wear, right?
And finally, the Gomers answer the question “What distance triathlon will they race?”
It’s gonna be a great season, Nation, we can’t wait to go on the journey with you! Monday Survey for this week: What are you looking forward to about Two Gomers Race a Triathlon? We want to know (so we make sure we do them)! Happy Running!

If you’re looking for running updates…well, how do we put this? This isn’t that episode! Join the guys in this special episode as they mostly talk Star Trek Into Darkness. But you know they Gomers – they’ll always find ways to talk about just about everything else: running with glasses, (really) salty foods, “meat on the side,” Diablo 3, palm tree trimming, face-blindness, Superman, Iron Man, and Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!
Nice guess, Steven.
