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.

The only thing worse than running is not running, right? In this episode we delve in the murky world of cross-training, and why pretty much all of it is bullshit.
Speaking of not running, we both share non-running related injury stories and Amy continues her bid to become an inspirational speaker.

While we're still allowed to run, we'll still complain about it. We read out your running confessions, and will happily keep taking them on an ongoing basis because we know you're all terrible running sinners, and we can forgive you.
We explain why you won't be seeing a BS face mask, get the lowdown on the Ross Barkley 5k, and tell fat-shaming advertisers to fuck the fuck off.
Features an appearance from everyone's favourite corgi.

Providing a mild distraction from your lockdown, Running is BS delves into the bizarre world of the garden marathon, running up Everest in your house and other weird things desperate runners are doing to stay occupied and get their distance in.
Has Amy been running? You may be pleasantly surprised. And Stu urges you to stop running up and down the same parks, canal paths, and streets and go and do a bit of exploring!
Our guest this week is Gareth Allen, an ultra runner who live streamed his garden marathon to a worldwide audience!

What do you do when there's no running to talk about? Talk about yourself! Thanks to all our listeners who sent in questions for us, we had a great time going through them and offering our complete lack of expertise as answers.
We manage to squeeze in a bit of bullshit running news, and have now both adopted the Genders Studio™ method which is effective but doesn't half make your head a bit hot.

Amy massively overreacts to a single comment about her audio and has taken a drastic solution to improve the ‘studio’.
We inevitably drop the C-bomb as the world of running is now dominated by the reaction to COVID-19 and its impacts, as well as post-run showers, brambles, fancy teas, and fell races that haven’t been cancelled.
We also ask very important questions such as “Would you wear a manbra” and “Is it ok to just go and run a strava segment?”… See more

A last minute stand in for Amy sees SBC rock the mic with Stewart for this episode full of all kinds of running bullshit.
There's sweary banter galore with chafing, race cancellations, filthy puns, and making noises at gross out comments.
We have bonus double guestage with London Marathon pacer Liz Ayres giving us a rundown of the changes being made to this year's race and Howard Owen's review of his, understandably, slowest ever marathon in Siberia.

Stewart and Amy (and a yappy Corgi) take on the biggest and most important topics in running (probably) in yet another episode of the podcast that loves to hate running.
We talk about being ill, boobs, race tshirts, and speak to a former international high jumper and coach who only bloody went to the Olympics, Sharon Heveran.

The podcast that loves to hate running delves into the murky world of shoes, and the whole Nike debacle. Watch out, Stu has read, like, two articles and now has Opinions.
We also talk about why you shouldn't use Eventbrite for races, how far breasts bounce, and the best way to kill time during a quarantine.
This episode is dedicated to Cactus. He was a very good boi.

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 subscribers. Why not give us a dollar? If you want a buff, this is the place to go.

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'.
