PODCAST

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.

#45 - Running Accessories are Bullshit

Running is BS ·

2020/08/09

A bullshit look at all the crap you strap and attach to yourself for a run. Who ever said running was simple? No, really, who was that person? How wrong they were... Amy's proud of herself for doing some research, adds more to her inspirational phrasebook, and chats to her Mum. Stu is tired from a bit of walking, explains his pre-run faffing, and doesn't care about the London marathon.

#44 - Garmin is Bullshit feat. Ruth Keeley

Running is BS ·

2020/07/27

If it's not on Strava it doesn't count, so apologies to all of our Garmin using listeners, but you can no longer call yourself runners. We also talk about what happens when a proper company makes shit jokes like this. Hopefully by the time you read this, Garmin's back up and running, but if not then shiiiit we have bigger things to worry about. Anyway, this is the podcast that loves to hate talking about running, and so now we're basically just a dog podcast, hope that's ok with you? Our

#43 - Running Films are Bullshit, part 1

Running is BS ·

2020/07/13

SPOILERS ALERT In this episode we discuss and dissect two running films, Brittany Runs a Marathon and Run Fat Boy Run, so be aware we'll have ruined them for you. We hope you're ready for yet another shitty start to podcast with some real bullshit, but we can assure you within 20 seconds we flip it and there is brilliant news, even though it makes Stu very angry. Stu invents the word 'Hollywoodised', Amy mentions her ultra (twice) and there's talk of boobs, poo, toenails and strava wankers. Classic

#42 - Back-to-back Marathons are Bullshit feat. Ben...

Running is BS ·

2020/06/29

Three episodes in one month and ANOTHER amazing guest? You're damn right. Ben Smith took on an extraordinary challenge back in 2015, and is gearing up to do another. Find out all about how he got on, how injured he got, and how stopping took its toll. As ever, we skirt around the edges of running by talking about socks, tea, dogs and moving your injury around rather than fixing it.

#41 - T-shirts are Bullshit feat. Connor Strynkowski...

Running is BS ·

2020/06/15

IT HAPPENED We tracked him down and somehow made him agree to talk to us, and he was lovely. Phew. We also talk a fair bit about equality and Amy says 'intersectionality' a few times, well she is a doctor after all. There's a lot of actual bullshit going on in the world at the moment, and we address it where we can but we're not the experts you need and urge you to find out more about race issues, LGB issues, trans issues, and all the other groups currently under attack.

#40 - Sweating is Bullshit feat. Mark Remy

Running is BS ·

2020/06/01

Our guest is a former editor of RunnersWorld.com and the founder of Dumb Runner, Mark Remy, and we get a great insight into the other side of running journalism and why some of those bizarre articles need to exist. We also discuss running early, the ideal time to poo, massive ankles, why you hate cross training, and we have another running confession.

#39 - Cross-training is Bullshit

Running is BS ·

2020/05/18

The only thing worse than running is not running, right? In this episode we delve in the murky world of cross-training, and why pretty much all of it is bullshit. Speaking of not running, we both share non-running related injury stories and Amy continues her bid to become an inspirational speaker. Music credit to http://www.freesfx.co.uk

#38 - Touching Your Face is Bullshit

Running is BS ·

2020/05/04

While we're still allowed to run, we'll still complain about it. We read out your running confessions, and will happily keep taking them on an ongoing basis because we know you're all terrible running sinners, and we can forgive you. We explain why you won't be seeing a BS face mask, get the lowdown on the Ross Barkley 5k, and tell fat-shaming advertisers to fuck the fuck off. Features an appearance from everyone's favourite corgi.

Running is BS ·

2020/04/20

Providing a mild distraction from your lockdown, Running is BS delves into the bizarre world of the garden marathon, running up Everest in your house and other weird things desperate runners are doing to stay occupied and get their distance in. Has Amy been running? You may be pleasantly surprised. And Stu urges you to stop running up and down the same parks, canal paths, and streets and go and do a bit of exploring! Our guest this week is Gareth Allen, an ultra runner who live streamed his garden

#36 - Q&As are Bullshit

Running is BS ·

2020/04/06

What do you do when there's no running to talk about? Talk about yourself! Thanks to all our listeners who sent in questions for us, we had a great time going through them and offering our complete lack of expertise as answers. We manage to squeeze in a bit of bullshit running news, and have now both adopted the Genders Studio™ method which is effective but doesn't half make your head a bit hot.

#35 - Showers are Bullshit

Running is BS ·

2020/03/23

Amy massively overreacts to a single comment about her audio and has taken a drastic solution to improve the ‘studio’. We inevitably drop the C-bomb as the world of running is now dominated by the reaction to COVID-19 and its impacts, as well as post-run showers, brambles, fancy teas, and fell races that haven’t been cancelled. We also ask very important questions such as “Would you wear a manbra” and “Is it ok to just go and run a strava segment?”… See more

Running is BS ·

2020/03/09

A last minute stand in for Amy sees SBC rock the mic with Stewart for this episode full of all kinds of running bullshit. There's sweary banter galore with chafing, race cancellations, filthy puns, and making noises at gross out comments. We have bonus double guestage with London Marathon pacer Liz Ayres giving us a rundown of the changes being made to this year's race and Howard Owen's review of his, understandably, slowest ever marathon in Siberia.

#33 - High Jump is Bullshit feat. Sharon Heveran

Running is BS ·

2020/02/26

Stewart and Amy (and a yappy Corgi) take on the biggest and most important topics in running (probably) in yet another episode of the podcast that loves to hate running. We talk about being ill, boobs, race tshirts, and speak to a former international high jumper and coach who only bloody went to the Olympics, Sharon Heveran.

#32 - Nike is Bullshit

Running is BS ·

2020/02/10

The podcast that loves to hate running delves into the murky world of shoes, and the whole Nike debacle. Watch out, Stu has read, like, two articles and now has Opinions. We also talk about why you shouldn't use Eventbrite for races, how far breasts bounce, and the best way to kill time during a quarantine. This episode is dedicated to Cactus. He was a very good boi.

#31 Cross Country is Bullshit feat. Maud Hodson

Running is BS ·

2020/01/27

It's Cross Country time, so we've spoken to Maud Hodson about Run Equal, a fantastic campaign that wants men and women to run the same distance. It doesn't sound like a lot to ask does it? You'd be surprised at the bullshit they encounter... This episode's Bullshit Running News theme is like nothing you've ever heard before (by which we mean good), and that's all thanks to our awesome Patreon subscribers. Why not give us a dollar?

#30 - Starting to Run is Bullshit

Running is BS ·

2020/01/13

The running podcast with the worst running hosts is back, and who better to dish out the advice than someone who's been injured for 2 years and someone who doesn't run? In this episode, we insult New Zealanders, talk about dog shit, and endlessly scream into the void about 'burning off those Christmas calories'. ‘Women have less ego. Men think: How hard can this be?’: the female ultra-athletes leading the field. This episode is sponsored by Angela Foster-Swailes, Ben Timpson, Elizabeth

#29 - 2019 was Bullshit

Running is BS ·

2019/12/30

Our yearly review of the year, and you guessed it, it was bullshit. Naturally, we bring you more exciting tea updates, and talk about Amy's ludicrously cute puppy Finley and how much he shits and has ruined her life. We talk about our new year's resolutions (don't hold your breath), and recap the Bullshit Running News that caught our eye during the year. AND there's a new way to support Running is Bullshit - Patreon.

Running is BS ·

2019/12/02

Well Amy hasn't been running, but that's no longer a big deal as Stu can't stop racing for some reason. We have double guest action with Gary Damer and Dean Smith from Behind the Medal podcast, who definitely love running and swearing more than us! We give you top dogging tips, and all we ask in return is your opinion on what Bullshit Tea should taste like. It makes more sense if you listen rather than reading this tbh...

#27 - Eye Worms are Bullshit

Running is BS ·

2019/11/18

Another episode, another week where Amy hasn't run, but don't worry you won't be disappointed by the reason. Our guest is Kerrie Aldridge, one of the pack of the back runners at the 2019 London Marathon who were so mistreated. We find how she got started and why she's going back to London. You can also find out more about her amazing charity work here: Facebook | Twitter | Instagram

#26 - Poop is Bullshit

Running is BS ·

2019/11/04

The best three weekly podcast that loves to hate running is back. There's the usual amount of bullshit, and somewhat inevitably, actual shit to discuss. We talk about American race fees, the 'Great' Runs and arbitrary scoring systems. Stu had so much to complain about he forgot to mention the extremely minor barbwire injury he got while trail running, but hopefully now you've read this and know about it.
