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.

#121 - Walking is Bullshit
Monday Nov 06, 2023
Monday Nov 06, 2023
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 uncharacteristically helpful. Amy also has the least scariest running story you'll ever hear, just in time to have missed Halloween.

#120 - Throwing Up All Over Yourself is Bullshit with Louise Butcher
Monday Oct 23, 2023
Monday Oct 23, 2023
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 awareness, but because it feels bloody brilliant!
We also talk about running smells because we're 120 episodes in and have run out of things to complain about.

#119 - Five Years of This is Bullshit with Ben and Cassie Jones
Monday Oct 09, 2023
Monday Oct 09, 2023
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.
There's also some nostalgia for how shit we were at the beginning, stories about actual shit, shit singing, and someone at a race who was a shit (allegedly).

#118 - Headtorches are Bullshit with Nathan Landry
Monday Sep 25, 2023
Monday Sep 25, 2023
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 singing ability, unconventional cross training, inadvertent inspiration, epic levels of cheating, and swearing profusely at theoretical passers-by.

#117 - Golf Balls are Bullshit
Monday Sep 11, 2023
Monday Sep 11, 2023
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 running nearly 5 ultras and Stu has once again gone to too much effort to record another song.

#116 - Normal People are Bullshit
Tuesday Aug 29, 2023
Tuesday Aug 29, 2023
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 organisers hate you, dingoes, and a surprisingly sensible discussion about running with large breasts.

#115 - Bowels are Bullshit
Monday Aug 14, 2023
Monday Aug 14, 2023
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 to run? Is your self-motivation super creepy? Can you spot a red flag? And most importantly, where do you keep your orange squash?

#114 - Cramp is Bullshit
Monday Jul 31, 2023
Monday Jul 31, 2023
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 injured by a plant, and a dinosaur.

#113 - Horoscopes are Bullshit
Monday Jul 17, 2023
Monday Jul 17, 2023
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!

#112 - Bracken is Bullshit
Sunday Jul 02, 2023
Sunday Jul 02, 2023
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.
