Running is BS

It's Cross Country time, so we've spoken to Maud Hodson about Run Equal, a fantastic campaign that wants men and women to run the same distance. It doesn't sound like a lot to ask does it? You'd be surprised at the bullshit they encounter... This episode's Bullshit Running News theme is like nothing you've ever heard before (by which we mean good), and that's all thanks to our awesome Patreon subs...

The running podcast with the worst running hosts is back, and who better to dish out the advice than someone who's been injured for 2 years and someone who doesn't run? In this episode, we insult New Zealanders, talk about dog shit, and endlessly scream into the void about 'burning off those Christmas calories'. ‘Women have less ego. Men think: How hard can this be?’: the female ultra-athletes lea...

Our yearly review of the year, and you guessed it, it was bullshit. Naturally, we bring you more exciting tea updates, and talk about Amy's ludicrously cute puppy Finley and how much he shits and has ruined her life. We talk about our new year's resolutions (don't hold your breath), and recap the Bullshit Running News that caught our eye during the year. AND there's a new way to support Running is...

Well Amy hasn't been running, but that's no longer a big deal as Stu can't stop racing for some reason. We have double guest action with Gary Damer and Dean Smith from Behind the Medal podcast , who definitely love running and swearing more than us!  We give you top dogging tips, and all we ask in return is your opinion on what Bullshit Tea should taste like. It makes more sense if you listen rath...

Another episode, another week where Amy hasn't run, but don't worry you won't be disappointed by the reason. Our guest is Kerrie Aldridge, one of the pack of the back runners at the 2019 London Marathon who were so mistreated. We find how she got started and why she's going back to London. You can also find out more about her amazing charity work here:  Facebook | Twitter | Instagram

The best three weekly podcast that loves to hate running is back. There's the usual amount of bullshit, and somewhat inevitably, actual shit to discuss. We talk about American race fees, the 'Great' Runs and arbitrary scoring systems. Stu had so much to complain about he forgot to mention the extremely minor barbwire injury he got while trail running, but hopefully now you've read this and know ab...

Amy's lack of planning really comes into its own this week as she describes the trail run from hell and Stewart has a lot to get off his chest. We talk about why watching running might not actually be bullshit, but how the World Championships really were, the new way to enter Tough Mudder, and a discussion on what is your price on for shitting yourself at the end of a race.   Ivor Hewitt's blog: ...

The only thing worse than running is watching other people running. You know it, we know it, so here it all is. Episode also features Amy's animal adventures, trollunteering, and Stewart ruining the accessibility of the podcast by not being completely shit. We want to hear about your rookie running errors, and if you've ever seen non-runners tucking into the post-race food or aid stations! Drop us...

Hear the sad voices of Amy and Stewart as we once again delve into the bullshit world of running. Includes, amongst other things, Theresa May, the legend of Pin Skin Man, Ed Balls and our lovely guest Ella Dove who has the ULTIMATE running injury story.

"There's no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes" BULLSHIT. Obviously we think that, it's our thing. We also discuss strava "art", pissing in the path, Eliud Kipchoge selling out, and Ed Milliband.

Can anyone beat Pin Skin Man? That's the vital question being asked in this episode. We also discuss sweating, Father Ted, Love island, how to poo and dead sheep. You know, all the important stuff. Tom Fairbrother joins us for part 2 of his interview to talk about his experience of eating disorders and how we can support our fellow runners. The #TRAINBRAVE campaign aims to inspire more athletes to...

We speak to Tom Fairbrother, the disqualified winner of Race to the Stones, about his experience and the most aggressive race strategy you've ever heard of. Plenty of news, rants and complaint as per usual, and a surprisingly strong defence of Disney races, though not from either of us...   Tom co-founded Train Brave, a campaign to support runners with eating disorders and to raise awareness of th...

The podcast that loves to hate running is back to talk about goose banter, not training, running hangovers, and surprisingly little about bodily fluids for a change. Our topic this episode is shit races and virtual races/runs. Are they all bullshit, or is there a place for them?

The podcast that loves to hate running! This episode we talk to Holly Corlett, better know to the Bullshitters as SBC, about her weird running story which ultimately lead to running on a treadmill for 24 hours... We also talk a lot about snot and where to deposit it, and ask you what running things did you learn about far too late? Running is BS buffs now available! Get in touch to get merched up.

WE DID ULTRAS We talk about ultras. Have you done ultras?  Contact us about ultras. (Don't worry, we're both shit at them)

When is a long distance training session not a long distance training session? Our guest Mica Moore is quicker sitting down than she is running! We discover another dastardly supervillain in a dramatic reading and see the return of the Amy Genders' Gender Agenda!

SO, here's our London Marathon special all about, like, marathons, and why they're, like, bullshit. We also, like, respond to criticism and find out Amy doesn't know how sentences start. Bullshit running news, more updates from China, and we ask how far do you trust a fart? Oh, and there's a COMPETITION!

Danny rants do do do do do do, Danny rants do do do do do do... With Me Now presenter Danny Norman is our guest to talk about the background to his fantastic podcast and some parkrun bullshit.

We're lacing up our trail shoes and heading out into the wilderness for this episode as we talk about trail running. We talk about Barkley, the bullshit running news and of course your tweets and bullshit stories.   Have you fallen out on a run? We want to hear about it.

Our guest is a rock solid legend, the 'inspirational' Rhys Jenkins, ultra runner and race director. Of course, we talk to him about poo. We read your tweets, the bullshit running news, and bullshit story of the week! Let us know if Mercury has affected your running recently...

Find out why we're big in Japan, Amy talks about poo and Stewart tells his favourite tampon story... This weeks theme is running inspiration, and why it's complete bullshit.

We interview the fantastic Hope Virgo and get a great insight into eating disorders and running, as well as making up a whole backstory for her as a superhero against her invented arch enemy... We also have a competition WINNER - gotta listen to find out who though. Please tell us what wasps are for, what makes a running wanker, and bully Amy into running more so she has something to talk about fo...

COMPETITION TIME - leave us a review, screenshot it, send it to us and you can win this rather snazzy backpack: https://iamrunbox.com/en/backpack/3-backpack-lite.html#/color-orange

This week we're joined by Liz Rees, an awesome runner, supporter and C25k graduate and leader! She gets stuck into what's bullshit about being a chubby runner and how she's turned that into everlasting twitter glory. We also have loads of contact from our listeners, and we mostly insult them for their loyalty. Sorry.

The final episode of 2018! It's been quite a bullshit year, so what could be better than making a podcast about it? There are some proper pearls of wisdom in this episode and, frankly, more calls to action than is decent.
