Running is BS

Just one more episode until Meriden so we're getting into the best bits of any race, the map, the plan and the admin!

We've also got some great ultra food ideas from our listeners which are uncharact…

We're on a roll with guests and this is a really good one! Louise Butcher had a double mastectomy but instead of shying away from her scars, she's running topless every day not just to raise awarenes…

Seriously? FIVE years? Of this? Weird. We go back to our roots for this episode by interviewing a couple of people that we know, but one of them did the Dragon's Back Race, so that's pretty cool.

The…

We've saw some guy on instagram and we liked his posts so we thought we'd get him on the pod! Go check out @running.is.dumb

Meanwhile we get into corporate fanboying, the uncanny valley of Stu's sing…

Well, there's no race report as expected so it's over to you for some of your gripes, moans and outright petty bitchiness about other people's running.

Amy tells us all about what she's learnt from r…

Finally it's Stu's turn to be suffering from a stupid long race, although Amy is feeling the long term effects too.

We also talk more places that feel wrong to run in, watch PBs, why American race or…

Did Amy finish her mega-ultra? Spoiler alert: no. The title gives it away.

We ask the vital questions: Have you got a niche stat which makes you look good? Are there places you're not really supposed…

We prepare for our upcoming ultras by getting lost before the recce even began, and running track races. Can you guess who did which?

A strange animal warning, sports days, more dehydration, getting …

May the trail gods bless your run and may you find happiness in a petrol station.

This episode is a bit shorter so you're going to have to run quicker!

ANOTHER ultra. ANOTHER local race. MORE dog chat. The worst run Amy has EVER had.

Getting lost, meetings, gravel, crying, very worrying PBs and the best motivation to run a PB ever.

Martinus Evans joins us to talk all about the Slow AF Run Club, which we feel lots of you would like to join!

There's also tales of heat, hills, holiday, horses, Norfolk town names, potential penises…

Amy goes off-script, but staying on-script isn't exactly straightforward either.

Stu wangs on about moving house, and while we haven't won anything we've been near people who have.

Who wants a free r…

What do you want before a race to really get you in the mood? A banging tune, an anthem... opera?

We talk about some very dodgy options as well as race reports which perfectly personify our individua…

What a load of bollocks! A strong start for this episode as we finally break the taboo on talking balls.

Should your dog's instagram be first person? Is Garmin trying to cancel us? Should Stu blow hi…

We've both done a race, and they couldn't have been much more different! If you like it hard or you like it slow, you're in the right place.

We also deliver a lot of good advice to race organisers us…

There was a horse incident, but we lived to tell the tale.

Stu almost didn't live to tell the tale of his race, and Amy nearly got stuck in the Brecon Beacons. Just normal running stuff, right?

We're…

Amy is appalled that her long run included so much running and Stewart got chased by bloodhounds. Standard weekend.

We get into what elements make the very best and very worst race websites. We've al…

Apologies for the audio quality for most of it, that was Amy's fault. The cover photo is entirely Stu's fault, but we're not sorry about that.

Otherwise we've got a Stu-heavy, fairly ranty episode in…

Stu's feeling ill again so has asked for your stories of being ill to make himself feel better.

Amy wangs on about dog owners again, we warn against the perils of parkrun, and make cheap jokes about …

Breaking the myths and stigmas of the world's most popular exercise - this episode's tagline written by an AI.

We turn over bits of the script to an AI to save us some time, and it almost works! Amy'…
