Bad Boy Running

Send us a textJody and David are joined by Tom Davies an adventure racer who has taken part in not one, but TWO insane world championships. They discuss the dangers that he faced such as crocodiles, white water rivers, and, perhaps worst of all, riding a bike. Despite Jody's dismay at the fact that David got a cyclist on the podcast, this turns out to be an episode not to be missed. If you've never heard of adventure racing before this is a nice (and inspiring) overview of a sport that can be both strategic and exciting.  If you want to join the conversation then search for the Bad Boy Running Podcast on Facebook and request to be part of the group!

Send us a textYes, it's the final part of the Do-Badder A-Z and the guys kick off with none other than R and "Marathon Man" Rob Young right through to Z and the 0.0 race.

Send us a textJust like last week, Jody and David were worried. New listeners have flocked to the podcast in their tens, but how would they keep up with the obtuse in-jokes without alienating the new audience? Well, as one smart Do-Badder suggested, they decided to record an A-Z of Bad Boy Running jokes covering all the references and in-jokes that have been made throughout the previous episodes so that it all makes sense! This was advertised as a two-parter but, due to the sheer quantity, will now end up being a three-parter. Perhaps U should be for Unfulfilled Promises, right Josh? Anyway...

Send us a textJody and David were worried. With all the new listeners, how were they going to continue making obtuse in-jokes and not alienate the audience? Well, as one smart Do-Badder suggested: why not record an A-Z of Bad Boy Running covering all the references and in-jokes we made in all the previous episodes so it ALL MAKES SENSE. (Of course, you could listen to all the previous episodes but this is a much more effective way of aggressively cornering your way to Do-Badder expertise...) This may be useful if you're training for a marathon, ultramarathon, the Marathon des Sables or any OCR race (for SEO purposes, of course). If you want to get somebody on the podcast then find us on Facebook by searching Bad Boy Running Podcast and asking to be accepted into the group, from there it's simply a case of making suggestions.

Send us a textIt's finally here! After a year of building up to Nuts Challenge, Jody finally gets the chance to run the course. Spoiler: it didn't go quite to plan. David and special guest Pete Rees from Mudstacle go back over the race with Jody to discover what went well, what went badly and what makes Nuts such a special race (hint: it's not the abuse). Jody reveals all his mistakes in the build-up (including an abortive attempt at CrossFit) and his cut-off woes. If you've not watched the video, check out the attempt here on MustacleTV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0eDj-GId1c&t=312s And he answers the BIG QUESTION: will he attempt 4 laps of Winter Nuts next year?

Send us a textToday the guys talk to Colin McCourt, a former pro-athlete who is documenting his transformation back into shape. His friends have all bet him £100 that he can't do a sub-16 minute 5k by the end of this year. If he wins, that's a nice windfall, if he loses, he has to get seventeen first and second names tattooed on his body.  David and Jody start off with the basic questions about how's training going, whether it's realistic, before, in classic Do-Badder style, they veer off course and end up talking up about how social media could be used by those who are of a higher profile to bring more attention to the sport.  Enjoy!

Send us a textHave you ever considered changing styles? Will it make you more efficient? Will you be a faster runner? Having switched styles in the past David offers his view on why he did it, having had run-ins with shoes that forced him to change running styles, Jody explains why he hasn't. All of this as well as barefoot running, Chi Running and the seemingly oxymoronic 'barefoot shoes' are discussed in what turns out to be a dangerously informative podcast.  Enjoy!

Send us a textOn the advent of the Winter Nuts Challenge, Jody and David welcome back Pete Rees from Mudstacle to give some last minute tips to Jody who is taking on all four laps. It turns out Jody hasn't factored in a few important points, such as the cut-off time, and the chaps ponder whether he's actually going to make it. Pete also fills us in on his epic Marathon des Sables training, including running the Pilgrim's multi-day ultra and running part of the Monarch's Way overnight to prepare for the long day. If you're running Nuts or the MdS, you've got to listen to this episode. Remember, it could be the last one Jody appears in...  Enjoy!

Send us a textThis Podcast features James Appleton talking to the guys about, well, everything really. They cover Tough Guy, fell running, and photography. The guys also hear an exclusive piece of news from James, so listen out for that nearer the end. This interview is so packed with information that the intro possibly breaks the BBR record for being one of the shortest we've ever done. Listen up and get ready to think about planning your next holiday in the Lake District.  If you like the audio description of James' art then you can browse and buy more of it here: http://www.jamesappleton.co.uk/Home.html  Enjoy!
