What is the result you want to create?

Podcast favourite Kirsty Reade is back as my co-host and it doesn't disappoint!This week we're talking about why Kirsty didn't actually want to cover comparison as a topic - and what that has made her find out about herself, why thinking "I'm onto you" is a sign your in the comparison trap, and how upward social comparison may make you a better runner.We also ask how can we make comparison bring out the best in us as opposed to the worst in us and find out why Kirsty is once again taking on the 200-mile beast that is The Northern Traverse.

Om Podcasten

A podcast for people that hate running podcasts.Hosted by author, coach and ultrarunner Allie Bailey, Running Won't Save You aims to be the most fun it can be whilst also offering a bit of insight, some proper advice and (sorry about this) some coaching tips in a way that won't make you want to throw your phone in the sea.With a weekly rotation of incredible co-hosts including former GB athlete Holly Stables, WMRA expert and decorated ultrarunner Kirsty Reade and tea drinking climate hypocrite Damian Hall, Running Won't Save You is the antidote to the influencer fronted bullshit you might be used to. Gosh there is a LOT of that about, isn't there?Each series is loosely based on a theme that carries through all ten episodes, allowing listeners to take action and hopefully create some results for themselves wherever they are in real time. It's an actual helpful podcast because I'm a coach and that's what I do.As well as the useful stuff, there's all the usual nonsense that you should be used to with Bailey podcasts, including tales from the hill, light bullying thinly disguised as banter, race reports and briefings plus your listener questions answered by our experts every single week.Send us your suggested topics, questions, thoughts and feelings at runningwontsaveyoupod@gmail.com and follow us on instagram at @runningwontsaveyoupodSeries two's topic iiiiiiissssss COMPARISON!
