So, my grand scheme, once I finished my audiobook while running, was to subscribe to the Renewing you Mind podcast (by RC Sproul) and listen to that while running. It made perfect sense, because to miss a day running would mean missing a broadcast, so there would be additional motivation to run daily. However, I have come to find that while there is, in deed, and Renewing your Mind podcast, it is not, like the radio broadcast, daily. Instead it is weekly. And worse, it is merely the Friday edition of the daily broadcast. Therefore, it only plays 1 out of every 5 programs in each series. Now, all of these daily broadcast can be heard streaming from the web, but that doesn't help me while running outside.
Therefore, I need to find another source of daily podcasts. If anyone has any ideas, I am open to suggestion.

I'm not positive this could work - but could you record each days broadcast from the web and then listen while running later? Or better yet, do you having streaming on your phone and could use your phone like a mp3 player? (Mine can, which is why I ask...)
I'm impressed with the daily running. When do you find the time?! I'm lucky to just get enough sleep... Running sounds like more time away from my 7 hours of sleep...

I subscribe to a bunch of NPR ones. I really like "wait wait don't tell me" which is hilariously funny and I listened to while shovelling snow...but that is only weekly And "this american life"
it depends how long you run for, cause you could listen to half of it and then the other half another day

LOL. I had never heard of "this american life" before yesterday. Yesterday, however, James Lileks mentioned it in his blog. He included a link to an animated short based on a TAL bit. See it HERE . Here is how Lileks described TAL; "The pacing really, really bugs me: one line of dialogue, some music, another line of dialogue, music, a nasally injection from the host, music, and so forth. They’d take nine hours to recite an e e cummings poem, and you’d get the sense that someone had spent an entire week auditioning music that sounded perfectly lower case."
So let me know if that is your impression of TAL.
However, I did find that Truth for Life has a daily podcast. This is the sermons of Alister Begg, which is just a fun name to say. You really need to get that scottish accent going to say his name properly, too.
