The Runner Beans

[Cucumberthunder]

Is this for real? I blocked her because she’s too much but if this is true then theyre a disgrace. The moaning about the baby they have and that time she kicked off because he soiled his nappy as they started driving that time. Not to mention all the days and weeks she spent away from him palming him off in the first months because she had some low budget content to do. Such a pathetic excuse for a parent

I forgot about her leaving him in the dirty nappy. Grim.


My youngest is currently in a phase of pooing the second we get his car seat into the car. Combine that with a toddler who was making leaving the house a tantrum filled challenge and yeah... that's parenting!!!

I don't agree with surrogacy, but in particular going through it to then abandon the child with a nanny (when you have a very part time job) seems cruel and screams "this baby is an accessory" to me

Have we seen her use the gifted gym recently? Wonder how many peloton rides she’s racked up since someone on here found her stats

That was me. I have just looked and she had done 7 workouts in 2024 with the last being mid June and 4 of those were in January. She is a fraud. I use my bike every other day and would love a treadmill but we can't afford one and we certainly don't get things thrown at us!

Did anyone see her stories yesterday, took about 175 gels on her long run and unsurprisingly by 15 miles her stomach was in bits.

 

[Camperfan]

She did a series of stories on that long run where she seemed to do nothing but moan, tummy felt bad, needed to buy water, ground uneven, lots of cyclists wanting to pass. Hardly inspirational! It was a lovely sunny day, she has just come back from another trip abroad, yet whinging on. I honestly don't get why anyone listens to a word a she says it why brands work with her.

 

[punter]

she is training for Berlin I think. Do we think Westin gifted place?

 

[coach84]

you’d think as a dietician she should know that all those different gels are going to give her the stick to one that you know works for you. She’s obviously got a gifted boston place (there will be a microscopic #gifted on one post at some point) but hasn’t decided on a race fuel yet

she's a dietician, she should know that first, to run/walk you don't need that amount of nutrition, and last, all those gels with no enough water or a bit of dehydration was a recipe for

Edit Berlin. She’s had several gifted Boston places already without achieving a time qualification

I still think she overfuels. I got slated on here for saying as much, but seriously if I ate as much sugar as she does pre and post race, I’d have diabetes.

 

[Lastqueenofscotland]

I find the advise around carbloading and fuelling mid run really high. I would just vomit if I had that many gels and I think most people would feel sluggish and bloated with the recommended amount for carb loading

I'm with you, for low intensity run/walk, that amount of sugar is insane. Proper marathon runners consume lots of gels (if you compare them with me, a turtle) but they are pusging their limits, and also they are used to.

I remeber a very good HM runner that never managed to do well in marathon because he couldn't get used to the amount of carbs required.

She will be OK with a ice lolly midway and that's it

 

[orange club biscuit]

She has just posted about the new BQ standard as if she was SOOO close to it before

 

[Lastqueenofscotland]

And like she’s not done it twice…

 

[zetta buttons]

What was she buying the 3 bottles for? I had completely lost the plot by then tbh.

Maybe she should try tit’s DIY gels. They worked.

She's buying them because she thought they'd be easy to spot at Berlin. Has she got an elite place?? Surely not. Maybe friends meeting her with bottles on the course?

You can have your own nutrition at Berlin even if you are not elite, see under own refreshments.

That sounds like a recipe for disaster . How would you even find your own bottle? Or what if someone else took yours?

 

[coach84]

If you’re in the masses there is zero chance of finding your bottle when I ran it most were scattered on the floor. She runs with a hydration system most of the time anyway and Berlin allow these so I don’t get the issue

 

[hollyhocks]

She regrets not dropping her son off at nursery sooner to "make the most" of her time before working her very part-time job?? I drop my kids off at the last possible minute to make the most of my time WITH them.

 

[Glassofmalibu]

I find beans a real runner deinfluencer. Anything she’s involved with I will not buy.
