The podcast that loves to hate running. While other podcasts will celebrate your journey, encourage you to go faster and further, and run free, we’d rather talk about bleeding nipples, getting chased by horses and getting horribly injured. Keep it real with Stewart and Amy.

#157 - Straight Roads are Bullshit
4 days ago
4 days ago
Stewart has an important yet stupid announcement to make, and Amy ran on a road.
Our listeners fall over, get stopped by the police, get spat on, rant about t-shirts, and apparently one of you was a monk! A classic episode in many ways.
Also, Amy gets all the hard names and Stewart doesn't edit out any of attempts, you're welcome.

#156 - Racing Mobility Scooters is Bullshit
Monday Jun 02, 2025
Monday Jun 02, 2025
Only we could have an episode title like this, surely? Stu is coming in hot with a rant that will definitely backfire, and Amy has forgotten what she's ranted about.
There's talk of coughing, being unprepared for the elements, eggs, a parkrun nun, the cursed Edinburgh marathon, and a story that could only have come from Lisa Gibbon.

#155 - Stolen Valour is Bullshit
Monday May 19, 2025
Monday May 19, 2025
Amy gets good and wound up about things that do not affect her life in any way, while Stewart uncovers a conspiracy theory.
We talk about squirting, tea experimentation, losing the will to live from running on a flat road, What 3 Words, and the London marathon continues to live rent-free in our heads.

#154 - Ghost Horses are Bullshit
Monday May 05, 2025
Monday May 05, 2025
Amy starts spooooky season early this year risking the most heinous curse imaginable, while Stu has become the greatest runner in history and is playing it super cool.
We also possibly quite badly insult 0.004% of our audience, Amy doesn't understand dimensions, we talk about the worst way to power through a night shift, when a marathon isn't a marathon, and have the annual worst London Marathon costume record discussion.

#153 - Winking Robots are Bullshit
Thursday Apr 24, 2025
Thursday Apr 24, 2025
Another mostly unfocussed scattergun of a podcast where Stu has done another bloody race and is all full of himself and Amy hasn't done a race and doesn't give a shit.
We talk head injuries, Weird Al Yankovic, the start of silly costume season, races that don't exist, and have serous worries about our audience.

#152 - Mansplaining is Bullshit
Monday Apr 07, 2025
Monday Apr 07, 2025
Amy grabbed a little lamb, it's fleece was white as snow, and when she lobbed it over the fence, on her merry way she did go.
There are tales of personal growth, colonialism, getting lost in a field, public rights of way and when they should be destroyed, and we accidentally convince ourselves that £140 shorts are a fair deal.

#151 - Other People's Routes are Bullshit
Monday Mar 24, 2025
Monday Mar 24, 2025
Oops Stu did it again, got lost in the woods, endangered his friends...
There's also plenty of running icks in this episode, Amy scales a mountain and wishes she hadn't, and we shit all over the Lisbon half, which by the sound of things is certainly not the first time.

#150 - Just Running Downhill is Bullshit
Monday Mar 10, 2025
Monday Mar 10, 2025
Our 150th episode spectacular doesn't feature AMAZING guests, WILD stories, or HUGE competitions, it's just the same old nonsense.
Stu has been questioning his sanity, nearly drowning in mud, learnt how to do CPR, and actually went to the gym while Amy went for a run.
There's also another thrilling religious running update.

#149 - Mashed Potato in a Bag is Bullshit with Bethan Taylor-Swaine
Thursday Feb 27, 2025
Thursday Feb 27, 2025
We're joined by the Feminist Sociologist of Sport Bethan Taylor-Swaine who is right up our street doing research into all the awful things about running we love talking about.
Meanwhile, we discuss an alternative fuelling method, running with the Mafia, Stewart's ego, and Amy talks for a long time about shoe colours insisting she doesn't care about them.

#148 - Being Farted On is Bullshit
Monday Feb 10, 2025
Monday Feb 10, 2025
We're sorry about the title of the episode, and yes the story is pretty bad, even by our standards.
Amy is being gaslit by social media, but in a very specific way, and Stu accidentally invents a new form of age grading at races.
