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.

We're pretty straight to the point in this week's title, and it's a horribly evergreen story for us to discuss.
We also have dog rants, a smattering of LGBT running history, the all-important Nicky Genders Update, a bone necklace, the Amy Genders Gender Agenda, the saddest dog story you ever did hear, and we make a child cry.
We want to know about other LGBT running icons, and the weirdest thing you've ever found on a run.

Amy finally cracks and starts snitching on anyone she sees, while Stu just has a long sit down after a birthday banter ultra and wonders if "to see how hard it is" is actually a good reason.
The Nicky Genders update will give you a new earworm and Amy's singing lessons are really starting to pay off!
We need to warn you upfront that we do have to discuss Cross Country AGAIN, but we're just as unhappy about that as you are. When will the stupid arguments just end...

We refer to runningshoes.co.uk as looking dodgy, but we've since discovered we were looking at a different site. We apologise to runningshoes.co.uk, which actually looks like a great discount site.

In which we blame the universe for our failings, insult yet another part of the world, and name the Christmas calorie shitlist.
Amy also declares her allegiance to Market Harborough in a race recommendation with the potential to create a whole new rivalry.
Our guest is Badass Mother Runner Bev Logan, who gives us a great frank account about how she set up a business based on being a badass and is now selling merch around the world and inspiring women everywhere.

We round up the year the only way we know how, and it may not surprise you to learn that it's not been a great year.
We reflect on our amazing guests, ridiculous news stories, and favourite moments from the last 12 months and look forward to next year with some extremely non-committal aims and goals.

Our guest might be known as The Happy Runner, but don't you worry as we'll talk about barefoot running, hallucinating and chafing.
Amy has the weirdest, sort of funny, injury, proves cross-training is bullshit and has just had a terrible run.
Stu is furious someone unknowingly ruined his secret plan, stars in a romcom with a listener, and has just had a brilliant run.
We also bring you the results of the Wish running gear challenge, and it's a close one!

Our challenge for this week was to kit ourselves out for as little money as possible from the online store Wish. The results are, to be reasonably expected, mixed.
Amy updates us on her dogs wee habits, her mum's travels, and rants about tea. Stu teases his mystery challenge, further insults listeners, and raps.
Don't eat the communal vaseline!

We’re not huge fans of Halloween, but hey, an angle is an angle and so we lean into it by reading out your SPOOKY running stories.
Amy also pisses off a Facebook group, and to add to the obligatory tea update, we also have a truffle update!

Our 50th episode and there is yet more chat about tea and dog interruptions. Amy ponders alfresco testicles, we cringe over sexism in cross country AGAIN, and discuss blisters and whether there really is a worst place to get one.
We speak to Peter Gillibrand, Liz Rees, and Sam Wright who each completed their own virtual London marathons, and endured wind, rain and chafing.
Oh, and Amy did a marathon.

Because we all know listening to podcasts is best, right?
Being laughably unqualified to talk about something has never stopped us before, so this time we delve into music and what you're all listening to. Head to Spotify and search Running is Bullshit to find our amazing playlist as compiled by our listeners.
We also grudgingly admit (again) how useful going to the gym actually is, Stu reveals his surprising degree, and we discuss email inbox scum. And for some reason, someone mentions a human centipede...

If you're a runner with a Welsh accent, we'll pretty much have you on as a guest, but when you're a World 800m finalist and rock star, that definitely helps too! We talk to Jimmy about his unique "journey" through sport and music and how he's now combined the two.
We also tell Garmin to back off, wonder what races we've entered, and want to know if you've sent Stu a ladies toepad?
