Why do you race? That’s the question Jody and David are tackling this episode as they veer into banging on about whatever it is that helps them run.

WARNING! This episode contains some actual information about running… please don’t hold it against them.

Here’s some of the delightful highlights:

• Jody talks about completing his 30 day bodyweight challenge… and lets slip a revealing admission about his mum and karate
• David talks about his ankle…. again and makes the strangest comparison between running and playing the violin
• An inspirational message to all the non-runners who’ve persisted in listening to Bad Boy Running thus far
• David thinks about getting an Iron Man tattoo and explains how he earned/scammed a rare Tough Mudder headband
• The duo question the point of race t-shirts and badly explain Comrades Marathon
• Why MDS 1st Brit Danny Kendal is better at dancing and writing theme tunes than David (probably)
• At some point it gets quite philosophical and some actual advice is shared around the 25 minute mark - just skip this if it feels out of keeping with previous content

Enjoy!

In this episode we’re pondering the question of the worst things you can do before running a marathon.

Some of the things we talk about include:

• The many reasons why Jody STILL hasn’t joined a running club
• What the point of those terrible clickbait running listicle features are
• A list of the worst things you can possibly do before trying to run a marathon (our suggestions are quite frankly ludicrous…)
• Why David claims to be the slowest person to have run a 2.45 marathon… (or at least explains what the hell he’s talking about when he makes such a claim)
• Jody getting annoyed at David’s constant mentions of beetroot and demanding an explanation

We're not exaggerating by claiming this is a classic episode. We say that about every episode... but this one is a bit special with Jody and David talk about David's entry into BBC Two's Special Forces Hell Week series.

For some reason, some unsavoury characters also pop up in conversation.

Here's what went wrong:

• Why Jody’s wife is suspicious of his reasons for recording this podcast and David makes a damaging faux pas about Jody's wife
• Mo Farah leaves a review for the Bad Boy Running Podcast and Jody & David plan to ‘help’ UK Athletics with a generous offer
• Jody drops the C-bomb and rants about middle-class accountants
• Jody admits to having played in a netball team at school
• David’s trick to sounding like you’re great at a sport
• David reveals his Special Forces Hell Week involvement
• David explains how he researched Special Forces… on Youtube and reveals his training regime
• Why endurance was the best prep for the show
• David makes a damaging admission about how he likes to train… in the showers
• Jody’s talks about his experience training with the Royal Marines… and the shock in store when everyone walked into the mess hall
• The “hidden” final Royal Marine Commandos test
• Jody wants to know about the fun facts which were used to preview David’s Mudstacle profile
• David explains how he was involved in the biggest pub crawl of all time and was also the fastest fairy and how he beat Mo Farah TWICE
• How David taught Howard Marks to play poker
• Jody gets a bit confused and mistakes Howard Marks for a Nineties pop crooner
• David explains how he

Jody and David turn their attention to running clubs and the pros and cons of joining one.

But in case you thought it was getting too serious, there’s also chat about Pokemon, Stormtroopers and booty sculpting…

Here’s what went down in this episode:

• David takes his inspiration from a famous band for his rendition of the theme tune… not that you’ll ever be able to tell who
• David wonders why his ankle isn’t getting better after running on its for 15 miles and then drops a bombshell about his dating situation (it’s not good news… although that doesn’t stop Jody having a good laugh about it).

• Jody makes some pathetic excuses and jumps into an exciting new exercise routine that may or may not be for guys
• David makes a terrible suggestion for a fitness video for listeners
• Jody reveals his cunning strategy to run 100 miles… by not running long distances

• Why Tynebridge Harriers is the best running club to model, according to David
• Jody reveals his reluctance to wear running gadgets (even though he used to review…)
• Why David loves a good Sunday run after going on t
