Her podcast with Nick Bare DEFINITELY makes it sound like he cheated
Yes 100% - she says that in the last couple of months 'something happened that has never made her feel so insecure in my whole entire life and the confidence just fell out of my body'

Go on girl, win the WR, hang out in Texas with all these hot half naked men, absolutely bossing it!

Also the ‘I could have followed two paths and now I know I made the right choice’ ie to stay and forgive or to leave.

I couldn’t agree with you more - go on girl show him how much you’re killing it!!

So she’s claiming she’s already recovered from her 100 mile ultra…I get that she’s extremely fit, but most people I know don’t feel right for weeks after marathons and ultras. It’s hard to believe she’s already smashing workouts and competing in Hyrox only a few weeks later.

These Instagram types never seem to take any time to properly recover from big events. I feel like it creates a really unhealthy perspective for those watching their content and thinking they can do it all too!

Two bugbears:
1) she’s always yawning mid sentence in her vlogs.
2) She always talks about how busy she is. Her day is about three meetings and then a therapy session, gym and a run. Most people have to do half of those thing outwith their working day. I don’t doubt she doesn’t work hard compared to some, but the lack of awareness when making out she’s the busiest person there is

Absolutely, good luck to her!
We call men like Ben in our friendship group a “know all f*ck all” in that they think they know it all when really they know f all 😂

---
Do we think Ben will say anything or keep posting cryptic quotes 😂

I’m assuming this is a safe space to say I can’t stand Ben, he comes across like a complete dick. I started listening to their podcast and had to stop because of him. I also wanted to sign up to MyCoach and I watched an Instagram live they did when there was a promotion on and he single-handedly put me off signing up.

I mostly like Lucy but I can’t stand him and I feel like she also changes when she’s around him in vlogs.

Just watched her latest video, ad for better health: "you guys know I take care of my physical health, like I'm about to run a 10k pb, taking care of my mental health is important too". In the video she literally runs a 10km PB despite having a bad hip (which she acknowledges before she goes it isn't a great idea) then afterwards says she is in agony for the rest of the day... Also then saying she has lost weight due to stress. How is that taking care of her physical health? it's so warped

If they paced her, they need sacking!

She has just done down in my estimation by quoting her "Strava" marathon time.

Don't be one of those people Lucy!!

Anyone else getting fed up with the “hybrid AF” obsession? You run and lift weights like it’s some sort of unique combo. It’s not. Loads do that that to keep fit, healthy and strong.

I might have a bit of a controversial take but I’m finding the two of them insufferable. Ben with his pitty party single life posts and Lucy with the constant posting with shirtless men (most of who are in relationships) and now seems to be the finding excuses for performances. Not that she has to her hyrox time was still amazing

If it’s true she’s got a type and it’s overgrown man child.

I’ve never liked Ben for the same reasons everyone else seems to - he comes off as very immature but places himself as an alpha with his views. It’s clear he thought of himself above Lucy simply because he is male and she is female but it’s like watching a toddler in a suit.

I’m finding his social media posts extremely manipulative too. Yes men should talk openly about their mental health etc but the angle of his posts look to me like they’re to garner sympathy and make Lucy feel bad not from any genuine self reflection.

I ended up unfollowing another local fit person to me who I was a client of for a while as he went through a divorce and the videos he was posting about it for years after he was constantly moping saying it was the hardest time of his life etc then I heard from a friend he started dating his current gf within a few weeks of the separation and I lost all sympathy I had for him as his posts were all clearly for attention. As it happened when I was a client he would constantly not follow through with sending stuff he’d promised and always had an excuse about one drama or another, wife sick, kids naughty etc. another man child!

She said 5 years total, so 4 years before the wedding.
That’s gonna be tough, they’ve got business together, they’ve got a house together, she’s even changed her name.
It would have been tougher to stay in the relationship

So she's finally admitted that she's burnt out. It's great that she's being honest, but it's a bit of a red flag from a coach not to recognise what would happen by planning back to back endurance events. Plus it's a bit hypocritical to announce a few days before this burn out reel that she's doing yet another marathon? Before she got into running, she always seemed quite sensible, but ever since I've started to lose respect for her. Seems like a bit of an addiction to chasing time and getting kudos for all the tough events she's doing.

I find Ben extremely hard to listen to on their podcast, constantly interrupting and belittling Lucy! He seems like bit of a narcissist with a fragile ego! 🙄

I feel like Ben’s post are digging at Lucy and he’s coming across as quite salty. It seems like she is trying to qualify for the world champs or elite 15 in Hyrox and a few days later Ben does a big post about the best thing about hyrox being about the community not the flags 👀 a bit ironic as he seems to be constantly kissing that Hunter McIntyre’s arse
Ben is a loser, he’s never been able to handle Lucy’s success! He even went as far as doing a silly world record by carrying kettlebells around a race track to try and one up her! Embarrassing!! 🙄

I’m confused did Ben share bpn story saying king of the rats ie towards nick bare. Ben doesn’t follow bpn

Edited to say nope it’s against Jonny Davies who according to Reddit has been dating Lucy since the split

I find her actually quite smug, and implying that other people don’t train hard and that’s why they can’t run like her.

I also think she went into that marathon thinking it was going to be a breeze, and then realised the marathon takes no prisoners and is so hard whatever your level.
