Running Scared Media

Its Halloween and we thought what better way to celebrate this amazing day than to rerelease one from the vault! 

Go for a run or go for a walk, but don’t do it alone on…Halloween!!! 

This week co-hosts Jamie Roberts and Robert Lendrum review the 1978 John Carpenter classic Halloween. While we both agree it's a classic, do we see it as a 5 footstep film?  Dr. Loomis doesn't respect parking laws. Michael Myers has problems with women. He also loves to play peekaboo.

It's Halloween - our favourite time of year -  and as a special treat we are running with Marnie Kunz, founder of the running website and newsletter Run Street. We catch up with Marnie as she's moving through Brooklyn's spooky, yet peaceful Greenwood Cemetery. Kunz discusses her journey as a runner, coach, and writer, detailing how she connects running with spooky history through initiatives like the Haunted NYC challenge. We talk about New York City's vibrant running culture, scenic running spots like the bridges, and finish off talking about an article she wrote chronicling the scariest places to run in America (18:32). 

Happy Halloween!

In light of the time of year, we thought we would release one from the vault. 

Three scoops of murder victims courtesy of Michael Myers, Blumhouse Productions and the boys at Running Scared as we review the entire Halloween trilogy; Halloween (2018), Halloween Kills (2021) and Halloween Ends (2022). Had the Halloween franchise gone off the rails and does Blumhouse get it back on? Does this hang together as a trilogy? Is it wise to put Michael Myers on a school bus? Do the rules of Requels bog down a movie - ie. bringing back the legacy cast? How closely was this trilogy meant to mirror the latest Star Wars films? Yes this pod is a bit longer than we usually go, but it's 3 movies!

It's Halloween and the Sole Sisters are back at it again except this time they have company! On today's show they welcome guest Sarah Raitter for the Halloween-themed "trick-or-treat mile" running event where participants must consume either a piece of candy (treat) or a shot of alcohol (trick) before each of the four laps. The hosts, and Sarah (an organizer of the event), talk through Kylie and Justine's experiences completing the mile, which involves drinking Fireball whiskey and caramel vodka. They discuss Sarah's running history, her motivation for running in honour of her brother, and the various themed "dizzy miles" (like the Peeps, Jello Shot, and Eggnog miles) that she and her partner organize to make running a social and fun activity. They finish up by performing rap roasts of each other, in the spirit of a tradition they once shared with Sarah's partner. It's fun, It's spooky, it's hilarious and it everything you want in a podcast!

Make sure to give Sarah a follow on Instagram @sarah.raitter

Justine, your host, is running for the entire podcast. But this isn't just a simple run—it’s The Trivia Treadmill Torture, a chaotic game designed by one half of the podcast duo who also happen to be trivia hosts at various pubs around town.
The rules are simple: Justine must start running at a 3 mph brisk walk pace. Every trivia question she gets wrong, she must increase her speed. Her only hope for survival is to answer the questions correctly!  

Listen as Justine navigates four categories—Marathons, Miscellaneous, Music, and Twilight! Will knowing that a half marathon was once run backwards in under an hour and 40 minutes or correctly identifying a "negative split" save her from a grueling pace? Or will Kylie’s questions about the original enemies of the ancient Greeks, or the unexpected alcoholic fuel of choice for Victorian runners force her to speed up?

Tune in to find out if Justine survives this hilarious, pace-changing chaos, or if the final, random question about the top speed of a spider monkey pushes her past her breaking point right before the cooldown. This is high-stakes trivia where every wrong answer brings you closer to sprinting!
