Running instagrammers #12 GRWM - it’s just waking up, dressing and eating, not content.

[instaclowns]

What an idiot! Imagining lying about all that and then photos showing your watch working! hope runners world have been informed of what a lying and false individual she is!!

 

[FPbase]

But why all that effort? I mean, just running it or not!
I don’t get it

 

[Lastqueenofscotland]

I don’t get it… she’s so quick anyway?!

 

[*twinkletwinkle*]

Very odd. She did expose gropebus too, so not all bad

I love the level of detail that the investigation went into, catching pictures of the watch NOT being dead is brilliant. I love the marathon investigation website, loads of interesting stories!

And the fact they went on and purchased her photos to do so if she has any kind of honesty about her then she would release a post about this. The watch is just one driving factor of evidence stacked against her. Even to come out and say “it’s not true I cheated BUT”! But let’s face it she will likely go missing for a bit and then come back as if nothing happened

Or is she.....

 

[Neilme]

She's also been going through most of her activities this afternoon and hiding most of the routes she's ran (fair enough) but also any data, too.

....aaaaand she's locked her strava

I used to read her guardian articles about a decade ago when she was going for a sub 3. She’s definitely good!

 

[zetta buttons]

Comments are starting on her Instagram, I wonder how long it will be before they’re deleted or she goes private on there too.

So I wonder if the cheating is to keep up the look to stay "good"? I missed my sub 3hr attempt on my first marathon, never in my mind would I think to cheat to get that result or cheat to get any result.
Runners know the hard word and satisfaction that comes with it at the end, whichever target you are aiming for. She isnt racing for money, she already has her career. Does she get a kick out of it? Im not saying she isnt good, but I'd question any race of hers now

Exactly! I can’t get my head around this and why you’d go to all those lengths to conceal it. Everyone knows you might have an off day/season/year - it’s not as though she is really making money and her name from being a super fast runner? As in - she’s not selling training plans or whatever. She’s a journalist!

Was just looking at her Po10. She was clearly running really well in 2021/22, less so over the past year or two (albeit she’s still an amazing runner with an age grade much better than mine )

Is Ben Felton injured again??

If you've got nothing to hide you've got nothing to fear eh. Seems she has a lot to hide then in that case.

 

[FPbase]

I know she's a proper athlete (and this is not the place to discuss), but as she also acts as a "online coach" Charlotte Purdue has lost quite a lot of weight since last time I saw her. Her IG appeared in my fed and I'm a bit shocked! (I know she's elite and bla bla bla, but as she "trains" IGs people, I put it here)

Is Ben Felton injured again??

He said he had an MRI earlier this week as his hip was hurting him again, just like it was three months ago.

 

[hollyhocks]

It always boggles my mind when I hear about the lengths people take to cheat. Cutting courses is bad enough, but creating all of that (incorrect) data on Strave is another level.

That's totally mental! and she run it without the chip, so she knew what she was doing....

Do cheaters in London marathon don't get banned forever?

 

[talkamongstyourselves]

One way she could try to save her reputation is to pretend it was all part of an undercover report into cheating for Runner's World. More likely, she'll just go into hiding for a month and return like nothing's happened, and continue enjoying her cushy life and the benefits her job brings.

Tbh I’m a bit lost as to what she’s done. I get it when people swap bibs mid-course etc but are they accusing her of cutting the courses to get a faster time? I’m not a strava/running data person and got a bit lost by the article (other than they were accusing her of cheating).
