Running is BS

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!

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.

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!

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.

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.  

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
