I think she purchased every single bit of merch. New post of her with a Boston Marathon travel mug 🙄.
Looking forward to seeing her treat Berlin as a 23 mile training run with a few miles extra…
What a great way to screw up your goal race! I hate when people act like a marathon is just a walk in the park and won’t take anything out of you if you just run it “easy.” Statements like that can really impact runners who don’t know any better and make them feel like they should bounce back immediately. But in real life, I know people who took months for their running to get back to normal post marathon. I wish influencers would stop promoting this idea that you can just go marathon to marathon with no impact.
 
I unfollowed in the lead up to Boston because Boston is not the only thing that defines you as a runner. I look at her Insta every now and then and wow - same pose, same grin, same content, always Boston bullshit. She must be a Maurten ambassador or something, but she’s stupid to accept Berlin just before Amsterdam.
We all remember she accepted a Flora freebie for London which was 6 days after Boston (did you know she ran Boston?) and then dropped out so no one else could have that place. Selfish.
 

really? Some of our favourites didn’t make the cut. Bet welloggs and bester are fuming. But also people like runnerbeans did which is hilarious.

oh and Kirsty got gifted a place for Berlin which she of course couldn’t turn down even though Amsterdam is the goal race.
Bester will be fuming he didn't make the cut

Came here to post this article as I just seen it 😂 I mean nothing like being out on there because you work for them or use to work for the publishers eh! Looking at that Ali and obviously Lillie who gets countless free advertising from her contacts scratching her back. Classic fake beans with her crappy running stride in there 🙄 as you say I bet some are FUMING that they are left off there!

wow 😯 nice agin being given another free major like she had (then bailed on) with London that was taken from someone who could’ve had that space! Remember earlier this year she fished for a free Coros and then got one and said it was tit and started fishing for an upgraded Garmin! Embarrassment this girl and if she gets London again in April through flora or another then that brand need shooting. Also check out the amount of arse kissers in her post about it 🤢[/url]
 
Anyas training in the last few weeks is mental! 40k training session yesterday after a big mileage week already she is seriously heading for injury! She posted a week of training and not one rest day!
This frustrates me so much. How do these people manage to get away with this absolute insane volume of training and get no bite back? Then they post it all online for impressionable people to follow. And yes, people will follow this training whether you think they will or not because when you look at Anyas progression, it portrays the idea that this is how you need to train to get there.
I should be running Berlin and went on to put my back out last week doing the laundry 😳 it's hilarious and devastating all at once!
 
Notice Anya wore Nikes for her 40km training run. And two stories at least plugging cereal and beer freebies 🤮
Isn’t she a full time runner/influencer now, so the cash/freebies have got to come from somewhere 🤣
And why did she do a 40km training run!? That’s over 24 miles, she training for an Ultra or something? Is she still coached by that berk Bester, he’s doing 18 mile training runs almost every day.
These running types are starting to annoy me. Things I see time and time again such high mileage on the regular then when they don’t achieve the times they desire in races they throw all their toys out the pram and get really upset. It’s so obvious- they need to rest more so they have more in the tank. 🤦‍♀️
 
influencer hypocrisy at its best: Alexm “oh I will go quiet because I am getting married” and social media takes so much time. Posts exercise reels and stories every day, wedding reposts every day, now on a “mini moon” doing Q&A about the wedding and sharing every aspect of her “mini moon”. So far for “going quiet”

Quite obviously got a lot of money behind her or money from the bank of parents too, judging from the extravagance.
