Send us Fan Mail Part 2 of the charity episode and this one gets controversial.

Ep 37 - David runs an ultra (Part 2)
Send us Fan Mail The episode continues with more chat and feedback from Bad Boy Running listeners... ... plus there's some actual running talk (buried at around the 37-minute mark, we believe). Here's the order of service: The chaps talk new kinds of races… and it takes an odd turn Jody and David try to work out the heaviest person in the world They guys decide a new Bad Boy challenge that involves putting ON weight The boys compare images of the fattest people in Britain and then present a new challenge to BBR listeners … and then some bad maths Another call out for sponsors (and this is a real half-hearted attempt) The attention turns to the Color Obstacle Rush UK A discussion of the anger about BBR’s lack of awards nominations Why Tyson Fury would LOVE Edinburgh Marathon Some seriously good Bad Boy performances are revealed… and why David and Jody’s advice WORKS Jody reveals that David has a stalker David argues he doesn’t have serious job titles… and reveals how he manages to spend his time David inadvertently reveals the nickname of his ex-girlfriend… and gets all cryptic (answers on a postcard please) as he goes off on a story about he met her One listener’s attempts at matchmaking with David… and David reveals he’s off the market (allegedly) David reveals his worries about jinxing the relationship by mentioning her in the podcast… oh. The guys reveal what they do on Valentine’s Day… (not with each other, of course) Officially the WORST segue EVER Letters from international Bad Boy Running listeners A call out to US runners as Jody and David make an unashamed play to win over the US running market David tries another Pato Banton impression… A reader question about pacing leaves the guys confused about a race’s pacing strategy… and then fail to work it out A warning about pacers… and why you shouldn’t always trust them (and a clearly made-up stat from David) How to seriously p*** off a Park Run The rise of BBR’s resident veterinary expert A call out for technical experts to edit Bad Boy Running Enjoy!

The big 'what kit to take' debate (and another dig at Edinburgh Marathon) The No.1 reason to run an ultra (according to Jody) The unbearable boredom of running 24 hour ultra races on a running track The guys explain how much sponsorship has been offered to the podcast Jody explains he's as old as David now And much more...

Ep 30 - Your first race... things they don't tell you
Send us Fan Mail "I didn't expect THAT!" Today's episode focuses on that wonderful moment we all run our first race. Yes, the newbie race experience and all those things about it no-one ever told you. Please note, in this episode, we discuss the Running Awards... which are now out of date as Bad Boy Running wasn't put into the final (we're going with a conspiracy theory). SO, PLEASE DON'T TRY TO VOTE - IT WON'T WORK! Anyway, it's been left in almost as a historical artefact, a memory of what might have been. In this episode: The chaps discuss children’s TV presenters (no, not 1970s ones...) Jody explains the concerns he has about the running club David reveals another enemy of his who is trying to overcharge him for his running club Jody is shocked by the lack of activity on David’s Plenty of Fish profile The duo can’t believe how over-exposed the comedian Catherine Ryan is… David explains how he’s his sponsors’ little bitch (and how they were adamant he entered a race where he got his arse kicked) Why David’s sponsors LOVE watching him getting his arse kicked Announcing the global search for a solution to David’s ankle David announces he’s running the Afghanistan Marathon and reveals he know NOTHING about what’s going to happen David lets listeners know what he looks for in a night out (not safe listening) Jody belatedly explains Bad Boy Running’s intentions to win the Running Awards… and David comes up with a plan which involves us dressing up [PLEASE DON’T VOTE - NOMINATIONS HAVE CLOSED] David and Jody FINALLY get round to talking about the subject A reader asks a brilliant question Why you should NEVER shout out David’s name in a race Jody discusses the Nipple Situation and the scourge of bad race photos David explains how he felt seasick running Berlin and his newbie strategy for dropping out of races so he wouldn’t have to carry on Jody explains why he turns into Gollum on a long race What are your first race experiences and war stories? What went hideously wrong? What didn’t you expect? Let us know via letters@badboyrunning.com or join the discussion on the Facebook group - details below. Enjoy!

Send us Fan Mail Here’s Part II of the Race Preparation episode. (To be honest, we could have squeezed it all into one much-shorter episode if we didn’t keep going off on tangents… but then that’s exactly what OTHER running podcasts would do, isn’t it?) In the second half we discover: Why you STILL shouldn’t have broccoli in the morning before the race David reveals his three-stop toilet strategy…. and the one tablet you need to take before your race The hydration technique that ensures you don’t need to keep weeing during the race David says expresso, not espresso…. expresso David’s counterintuitive anti-superstitious approach to race preparation Jody and David officially do the WORST Arnie accents David admits to talking to himself… and talking to himself like a proper twat The Ultimate Playlist idea to raise money and have the best music playlist of all time for your race Jody’s super-cold compression tights nightmare An interesting drinking game that involves pants… not best played with David The stretching question. Not answered. David shows off his Classics knowledge and fails Jody suggests a new challenge for David and tries to rope the listeners in Jody and David talk about The Running Awards and their experience last year David scuppers his chances writing for any major running blogs by slating most of them Enjoy!

Ep 28 - How to prepare for a race (Part 1)
Send us Fan Mail In Part I of this special two-parter on Race Preparation, we discuss how to set yourself up for your best race ever… or at least not totally crash and burn. There’s some attempt to offer running advice in this episode. Clocking in at an hour and 40 minutes total run time, it would have to happen at some point on the balance of probability. Is it useful? Who knows… Here’s what Part I looks like: Jody and David demonstrate again why they shouldn’t have sponsors David explains the beauty of our latest sponsor (if you’ve heard of them, answers on a postcard please) David happens to mention that he’s won TWO races David makes another damaging revelation of something he’s SCARED of (we’ll be using this later…) Why you should always check which race your competitors are running David reveals he doesn’t actually know where the last race he won was David can’t hide his disappointment at feeling terrible after winning his races… (wtf?!) David’s date from the first podcast gets in touch The weekly check-in for David’s Plenty of Fish account… it’s barren ALERT! ALERT! Both Jody and David feel shame after reading a recent Runner’s World article… (this is disgusting) Why Jody and David need to UP the filth factor just to stay in business David reveals EXACTLY what he does with beetroot for a week before the marathon Why David often reverts to being a 90s A-level student on his races Jody’s marathon-long run-in with coconut water Enjoy!

We re-open the DNF debate… and listeners give their feedback David realises his ‘humble’ approach may have made him more enemies Jody suggests using the Mourinho approach to winning races and not “looking like a cock” The guys veer into talking about the Marathon des Sables (again) and somehow end up attacking IronMan competitors (again) A general call out for more stupid challenges and feedback in the Facebook group Now that you've listened, join the conversation!
