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.

New name for Amy but the same old bullshit.
The newly-dubbed ACG and Stewart get into some wedding chat, banana anger, dog interruptions, a noble DNF, manky feet, some of the most bizarre shoes we've ever seen, horses being put in their place, and the fact that you don't fuck with mountains.
Our guest Dr Nicki Lygo has crewed for John Kelly and Damian Hall on their incredible Pennine Way FKT runs, and has had a terrible time walking it herself so who better to tell us all about the art of the run crew, along with a delicious recipe for an ultra trifle.

We're tired, so tired. Stewart is because he can't stop racing and Amy is because it's 3pm and she hasn't had a nap.
Our guest Clare tells us all about orienteering and why you should give it a bash.
We also discuss many bodily fluids, injuries, Neher's Law, more infuriating research, and the Fyre Festival of trail runs.

Apologies to all the horsey people, but horsey people we are not.
Stu is still doing ALL the races and Amy is still doing NONE of the races as we discuss 'oh shit pace', running dates, an utter lack of sympathy for our fellow runners, and why did it have to be snakes?

Sigh, another ultra, whatever, no one cares anymore.
Saturday races may or may not be terrible, failed runs definitely are, mansplaining also is. We hear a chilling anxiety dream come to life, bruised souls, and we finish on a story that will make you run a bit slower due to nausea. Not sorry.

We return to the world of Hollywood, or rather the world of Christian straight-to-Youtube and Indian cinema for more spoiler filled reviews of running films: Remember the Goal and Budhia Singh - Born to Run.
Some classic early ranting, dog chat, banana fury, awkward running, mansplaining, and the absolute worst food to be given at an ultra.
And poo.

Huge thank you to our guest for talking us through the surprisingly secretive world of naked running!
We open up with the rant you deserve, not the rant you needed, work through some gym revelations, see some more arses, and finish with veiled threats to wildlife.

Stu has been racing and has a LOT to get off his chest and complain about.
Amy, less so.
Gym wankers, sports bra propositions, delayed starts, bad pacing, inappropriate Instagram messages, tiny balls, and no news.

We get hit with more of Amy's Irrational Anger on this episode as other people dare to exist in her vicinity.
We play a bit of 'would you rather', read out praise about ourselves, talk about mad race kits, and, inevitably, poo.
Does anyone read these episode descriptions?

In this episode we tell women not to tell women what to do and Amy tells us why her luxurious lifestyle means this episode is four days late.
Stu did some running, but then decided chocolate was better. There's also a strong animal theme with discussion of dogs at parkrun, dogs in airbnbs, gnats, and the best funny-not-funny news stories we've ever had.

CW: We discuss women's safety including mentions of assault and violence.
