I love love love this podcast please bring it back!!!! I don’t want it to end!!!

This is a great series. Very inspiring. I just wish there were more episodes!

I really enjoyed this podcast. Lots of great, heartwarming stories that brought us into the lives and runs of ordinary people. I hope it can make a comeback.

I truly miss this podcast-there is nothing like it! Great stories-wish it would return

This is an excellent podcast. Very well done, inspirational, heart-warming and my favorite podcast. Your stories have touched me deeply and have kept me running. Thank you so very much.

this was a great podcast that left me feeling inspired as a human, not just as a runner. i was sad to hear of it ending and wish RW could keep it going!

This podcast is so inspirational. I love hearing the different experiences of the people in these stories and how they have overcome obstacles in their lives. I laugh and cry, but mainly feel grateful for the gift of running. I am sad to see the episodes in my library dwindling, knowing that I will get to the last one too quickly.

Such a great show. Runners world needs to do two things. Bring this show back and fix the glitches in the training app.

Just reached the last episode of this podcast and so sad that Runners World ended this podcast. It was beautiful and inspirational. Bad move RW. Will miss hearing these stories.

I can’t believe they cancelled this show. It is an inspiring podcast that is for everyone, not just runners. Rachel is one of the best interviewers I have heard.

I loved everything about Human race. The stories were incredibly inspiring and complimented my other running podcasts! Please please please bring this podcast back!

Love this show! The human spirit is stronger than any obstacle. Thank you for letting us into these stories.

SO sad this podcast has been discontinued. My favorite podcast.

I love this podcast so much. It’s got high ratings. Since David Wiley left RW, I do t like the direction things are going. I’ll miss Human Race. If you haven’t, listen to the episodes available. You won’t regret it.

I am so sad this podcast was not renewed. I love the stories about the "ordinary" runners who are really extraordinary.

So sad to hear that this podcast is ending. I have loved listening to the inspiring and fun stories of running and runners. Rachel is an awesome host with such a friendly voice that makes you feel like she is already a running friend.

I listen to many fitness related podcasts and this is by far my favorite, but I would still have enjoyed it if I'd never run a step. The production quality, and mostly Rachael's ability to spin a yarn into a story are incomparable. She seemed truly sad to have her show cancelled, not happy to be moving on- why, Runners World staff???

this is my first podcast review, is it too late??? I love, loveeeeeee Human Race, it has been my running companion... Rachel thank you, because of your hard work ( and everyone in the podcast) and every single person that shared story on the podcast, everyday I had fallen back in love with running... I am so sad is over. I kind of wish it was april so it can be an aprils fool joke... sending love and hoping I can find you in another podcast...

So sorry to hear that Runner's World isn't continuing this for a 3rd season. This was a good one!

I have recently started running as an exercise and listening to this podcast has found a way to show that I am not the only person running for personal reasons. It saddens me to know that it has ended. It is a show that will be missed.

I have loved listening to this podcast and the storytelling is top notch. I'm so disappointed to hear it's been cancelled. Please reconsider. Rachel Swaby has done a great job.

This show is amazing and inspiring. The stories really bring a human side to the sport and make running relatable for everyone. I really hope it ends up coming back or not being cancelled to begin with. Thank you for some great listening!!

I just started episode 29 and heard that the show was going to be cancelled. NOOOOOOO!!!!! Please reconsider this! I love this podcast, it is well produced, inspiring & something I really look forward to listening to. ...and it motivated me to get back on the road & running. Thank you Panoply, Runner's World & especially Rachel Swaby for all of the work that goes into creating this podcast. Please reconsider the cancellation!

Please please please don't cancel this show!!! It is my favorite part of my long run every other week. The "runner's world show" is so dull and heartless in comparison. I implore your to reconsider!!!

I am so sad this podcast is ending. It has given me so much inspiration and motivation. Thank you - So sad to see you go.

The stories are told so well. The content isn’t the most fascinating, but told in a great way that keeps you listening. UPDATE: This is my favorite podcast. I can’t believe Runner’s World cancelled it - what a shame! I will look out for anything Rachel Swaby does in the future.

I was so sad to learn human race has been cancelled. Last summer just past the halfway mark of my pregnancy I embarked on a cross country move away from my community of Sweat Sisters. I ran most days up until my 33rd week of pregnancy with my trusty podcasts: Human Race and the Runner's World Show. Sure there are other running podcasts out there but few with this production quality and attention to detail. Those touches make all the difference. I know for me Human Race was company on long slow miles with a baby on board. I will miss the inspiring stories that urged me to push forward when my expanding waistline tried to coerce me into staying in bed. Thank you Rachel Swaby and team for your company and your dedication to telling the stories of runners in all places in the pack.

I'm so bummed that this podcast is ending. I enjoy podcasts about running, but this one incorporated a storytelling element as well that made me look forward to new episodes. I hope Runners World reconsiders and brings it back!

I really have enjoyed the stories that have been shafted about the lives of runner's through this podcast. It's been a wonderful insight to how and why people choose to run and stick with it. It's a wonderful take on the non-technical side of running. Don't get me wrong, I love reading about the best new innovations in running or learning about the injury proofing workouts, but this podcast gave me the invaluable knowledge of the human spirit. I'm am sad to hear that it will not be renewed for another season, but I cherish stories that it has brought to the public. Thank you Rachel, your hard work, and wonderful storytelling is deeply appreciated. ❤️

Really a great podcast, always found a way to motivate me to keep running no matter what. There are so many great stories to tell out there, I'm so happy to have heard as many as I did. Very disappointed that the podcast is being discontinued, it was always a highlight of my day when I saw that a new episode was available! Hopefully the new Runner's World podcast (Personal Best I believe) will incorporate some of the same specials as Human Race into the new podcast. Loved this podcast!

I am devastated by the news that this wonderfully crafted and inspiring podcast is ending. My running friends all listen and we are always discussing Rachael's poetic ability in storytelling. I have consistently been impressed and often moved to tears. Rachael - you will truly be missed!! I know I should be ashamed I didn't leave an earlier review to make sure Runners World knew how loved this podcast was. 😞😞😞

I have loved this podcast from the beginning. I will miss the great stories. It has meant a lot to me. Thank you to Rachel Swaby and your team!

I am a casual runner and was dubious about listening to a running podcast. But while the stories do involve running, it's so much more than that. The stories are moving and emotional and I cry almost every time. I leave feeling uplifted and inspired. Well produced, host is great. I always end up recounting each episode to my husband :)

I love this podcast. I happened upon it and can't stop listening to it and sharing it with friends and family. Great stories.

I have really enjoyed running to Human Race (& the Runner's World podcast). I'm so happy when a new episode drops & hearing the stories of other fellow runners always inspires me to keep going (especially when I have a hill coming up!) Thank you!

Great pocast! Heart moving and a reminder to live without regrets!

I love these stories about running and runners--so inspiring!

The stories are heartwarming and touching!!!

Great podcast. Great host. Great stories. I am a runner but non-runners would enjoy this podcast as well. I look forward to every episode and I have never been disappointed! One of my favorite podcasts!!

This podcast is both entertaining and informative. I love listening to it and wish it were more frequent! You don't have to be a runner to enjoy the podcasts.

These stories and interviews are so interesting and inspirational. Running really does help connect and bring people together. I've been touched by so many of these stories.

This is my favorite podcast! I wish I could listen everyday! I get excited when a new episode is available. The stories are so inspiring and motivating. I love the format of the interview, it makes me feel like I'm listening to a movie. Well done! 10 stars!

I love small, daily doses of motivation for my weekly training and Human Race is just that. They tie together story telling and running in a way that helps me enjoy and appreciate my opportunities to run. Keep up the great work!

Thank you so much for such a fantastic podcast and great to listen to while running! I have so many favorites but what I really liked was Little Mo. WOW, i listen to this a couple of times and even had my husband listen to it. The next week end on our long run one of the runners brought it up in conversation. Fascinating topics.

all the stories are interesting. would love if they were even slightly longer!

LOVE!

This is one of my favorite podcasts of all time. I listen to the other Runner's World podcast and enjoy it too. However, this one allows the producers to focus on one story and dig deeper into it. Great production, great sound and a great variety of stories. I highly recommend this one. It's one I always look forward to a new episode arriving in the download files!

I LOVE these podcasts. From my first one, episode 3 Sylvia, I have been telling family and friends that they must start listening immediately. So touching, inspiring, and thought provoking. Thank you Rachel. You really know how to bring stories to life.

The richness of the stories and the warmth of Rachel's story telling are truly amazing! I'm often brought to tears, the really good ones.

This has quickly become one of my most favorite podcasts ever. Even when the summary might not catch my attention, every single episode had been fascinating and inspiring. I can't wait until each new episode comes out. And you don't have to currently be a runner to like this podcast. It can inspire anyone!
