Yeah she's selfish. I wonder if she regrets becoming a mother? Not seen anymore about her second surrogacy lately some wonder if this isn't happening now

She posted a run on Strava that said embryo transfer day a few weeks ago so the transfer may not have been successful or waiting for a 12 week scan to announce

Ugh I really hope for the child(ren)’s sake that she will change her ways if this is so. Having one kid is an absolute breeze compared to two - surely even she will find it difficult to palm off two children to her poor husband and mum while she goes and run walks another half marathon 2000 miles from home!

I know she has a contract with Westin but it's a bit tragic to do the shake out run (in successive weekends!) when not actually running the marathon. (I suppose it's preferable to her running Boston and London again though)

Im not sure what Westin get from her apart from someone to lead their monthly runs? I really like Susie Chan and see she was around Westin this weekend too. The fact that they had plenty of rooms to gift on marathon weekend is diabolical - no excuse for a hotel like that not to sell out.

I remember bits and Kirsty got gifted rooms for one marathon too, might have been Berlin?? Crazy, they must charge too much for their rooms to be able to give them away for free.

I don't really understand what she's saying here? No second baby?

Also if you keep scrolling that's the face of a kid who doesn't want to be there..

I get she’s probably trying to be funny but given how hard she tried for Bertie, I’m not feeling the sentiment.

I don’t think she means herself, she meant the people running the marathon? Tbh it took me a while but I think that’s what she intends to say.

She also can't spell...
This is absolutely tragic. She definitely tries too hard - I seem to remember other terrible attempts at *funny* signs when she's watched other marathons. She spends way too much on running instagram/with the barbies and thinks that these kind of jokes translate to the rest of the world (see also, when she did a whole reel about not doing a spring marathon, because she seems to think it's normal for a non-elite runner to do at least two marathons a year)

Beans is attempting to clap back at everyone who has quite rightly pointed out that she likes to palm her son off on anyone who will have him as part of “it’s okay for mums to have hobbies and chase big goals”

Which I totally agree with 💯 but…

I’m just gonna put it out there… what big goals? She trains and manages to compete at virtually nothing of note unless she gets a comped place. Her “hobby” appears to be flying long haul to turn up at the opening of envelope/minor 5km race.

And there's a difference to having help to do things you love for an hour or two, not flying all over the world for pointless activities!

Exactly.

I absolutely agree with the sentiment and when I was pregnant with my boy, one of my many big fears was losing the part of me that I loved - being active and running, especially running with my husband and in new places (races, on holiday etc.)

Now he's just over 2 and I (roughly) go to the gym twice a week when he's in bed at night (we're blessed with a good sleeper), run three times a week - once or twice with him and my husband at parkrun or just around our local area and a longer run on a weekend afternoon alone. It fits around our lifestyle and my husband does similar because we want to prioritise it without being a detriment to our little one. If he's sick or I haven't seen him that day because I leave for work before he gets up then I don't go or I shift the times so I can see him when I get back/before I go. We don't book anything that can't be done with him in the buggy unless grandparents are happy to help out.

There's a world of difference between being away for days to attend two majors you're not even running in (one a transatlantic flight away) in one week and asking your husband does book and bath time a couple of times a week to get a run in.

I see she’s done a Q&A today and it’s 100% a fish for tension and to be included in the freebie team of believe in the run. She’s shared only one question response and it’s anonymous but she’s tagged in the shoe reviewers who give away the most along with one of the founders and who bring in all the wanky influencers on their freebie adventures in a blatant attempt to be seen and added in on it. Desperate fucker and to talk about how she’s trying to stay relevant with content 😂 in the words of my husband “she’s dated and finished imo” 😂
