Running is BS

Stewart Harding and Amy Cuthbert-Genders

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.

#20 - Getting Lost is Bullshit feat. Tom Fairbrother part 1
We speak to Tom Fairbrother, the disqualified winner of Race to the Stones, about his experience and the most aggressive race strategy you've ever heard of. Plenty of news, rants and complaint as per usual, and a surprisingly strong defence of Disney races, though not from either of us... Tom co-founded Train Brave, a campaign to support runners with eating disorders and to raise awareness of this important issue: https://trainbrave.org/

#19 - Geese are Bullshit
The podcast that loves to hate running is back to talk about goose banter, not training, running hangovers, and surprisingly little about bodily fluids for a change. Our topic this episode is shit races and virtual races/runs. Are they all bullshit, or is there a place for them?

#8 - Irongirl is Bullshit feat. Liz Rees
This week we're joined by Liz Rees, an awesome runner, supporter and C25k graduate and leader!

We also have loads of contact from our listeners, and we mostly insult them for their loyalty. Sorry.

#7 - 2018 Was Bullshit
The final episode of 2018! It's been quite a bullshit year, so what could be better than making a podcast about it? There are some proper pearls of wisdom in this episode and, frankly, more calls to action than is decent.
