Running is BS

#111 - Podcasting is Bullshit with Martinus Evans

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, and the Natwest Fraud Team. 

Martinus' book is out now in places that sell books so go get it and let him know who sent you!

#110 - Back Injuries are Bullshit

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 race place? Email us and if you amuse us we might give you actual money to enter a race.

We also reaffirm our support for trans runners, and all our LGBT+ friends going about their lives hoping the Daily fucking Mail doesn't turn up and start harassing you.

#109 - Pre-race Music is Bullshit

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 individual styles. A chill ultra for Amy and two super intense 1 mile races for Stu.

Also some of the stupidest and worst bullshit running news we've had for a while.  

#108 - Nipples are Still Bullshit

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 his money on a coach? All of these questions and more left vague and unanswered as you might expect.

Please look after your nipples though lads.

#107 - Head Squirrels are Bullshit

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 using our vast knowledge of how to put on a race, as well as chat on medals, squirrels both in the head and in the hand, Michael Flatley and how to steal a toilet.

#106 - Elevation is Bullshit

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 knackered but still manage to wang on for over an hour about running being stupid and hard and stupid.

#105 - Race Websites are Bullshit

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 all seen them, used them, and for some reason entrusted our bank details to them.

#104 - Group Warmups are Bullshit

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 including 'carpet-bag' race companies, European tea and running in snow. Don't worry, Amy's life of a series of random events continues with long run drama and instant karma.

#103 - Running When Ill is Bullshit

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 the UK economy. We also trail news of Amy's eventual podcast replacement...

#102 - AI is Bullshit with Gary House

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's brain also generates some running-adjacent anecdotes.

We speak to running coach Gary House about the Dragon's Back, online coaching, and why nobody cares about your running.
