On this episode, we welcome the incredible Russ Rogers to the show! 

Russ is the author of a children's 5-book series, Today...

He is also the founder of the movement called Movetoday365. He encourages everybody to get some movement in and get outside. 

As a part of Movetoday365, on the second Saturday of every month, friends and family gather together with Russ and go for a 2 mile walk . This is done in Santa Cruz, Ca, but can be done virtually as well.

In addition to discussing the origins and process of Russ writing the Today series, we talk about being active every day, and the importance of getting off devices and connecting in a real way.

 

This episode's 22 Too Many veteran is

Daniel McCoy

In Memory of PVT Daniel McCoy, US Army

April 13, 1993 – July 10, 2022

Ft. Campbell, Kentucky

“Daniel was unlike any human I’ve ever known. Smart, funny, loving, kind, and edgy! He was a sponge and soaked up information – he was smarter than most. He did life his way, and we respected that so much. 

He loved hanging with his friends and his dog, taking walks in nature, and being the best comedian and prankster! He enjoyed cooking for his dad. He was big into nature and loved learning. His drawing abilities were astonishing. Artistic, smart, and hilarious are characteristics that describe him so well.  

He loved his siblings very much. He was a blessing to those who got to know and love him.

He lived in Pecatonica, IL and Wildwood, FL, and has treasured friends in both places.” Shared by his mother, Leilani.

The states he called home were Florida and Illinois.
