I drank tea as a small child, as I grew up cousins were having milky tea in a bottle (I'm not sure if I did but probably), all the kids I knew drank tea BUT I'm from a really working class northern background and it was just seen as normal. I was having a full sized adult mug of tea before school by the time I was about 8 :LOL: My children don't drink tea, nor do my cousins' kids. I see it occasionally still but I'm not sure it's as much of a thing as it was.

On the cheating front I remember watching runners nip between the cones instead of doing the out and back in front of the race course building at York 10k years ago, I was really shocked, I know it's tempting but it's also nearly over at that point and a prime spot to be caught anyway...idiots.
 
all these days to think those poor excuses...I can't believe she thinks it's fooling anyone.
You can run London marathon without the chip if you want (not now as it's attached to the bib), but you can do it with a watch or upload the run in Starav manual and that's all. Draw it (and knowing you can do that stuff, because I didn't) it's very suspicious.
The wet thing...anyway, I was really hoping she came clean and apologies, it's very sad.

About the tea-gate, I thought it was a "pretend tea" you know, you give your child milk and call it tea XD


Have anybody else see the story of Hayley, is she now coach for Purdue? I can't believe it!

Holy tit. Carter fesses up in the Telegraph, but claims "I'm not a cheat".

It's the dictionary definition of cheating. There are few other ways TO cheat at running, besides doping and bib-muling. She cut the course, and doctored the results of both the Landmarks Half and the full London Marathon. Screensots, as paywall.

She also doesn't explain the "borrowed" GPX file or the folded-up bib. I don't buy any of this, and I see others on other social media sites aren't buying it either.

We're just meant to take it on faith that she ran the whole London Marathon course, in the times she claims, after she admits to course-cutting 3 weeks earlier, and was running slower in the first 10k of that Half than she apparently did for the entirety of the full? Yeah nah.

Even more lies, this shows she cannot be trusted and even after being fully found out she is still hiding my falsely describing actions!!! No mention of her watch working still and yet she's trying to say she "rejoined" in the wrong place?! 10km is quite wrong you liar! Not to mention the bit about saying soon after she realised she deleted her manually created course and run upload, but wasn't this up for months until this investigation called her out??

Stop lying to everyone and yourself you bullshitter! Honestly if she is ever gifted a place at another running event again then the organisers show they give two shits about running and their competitors! She should hand back both medals and never be allowed to run those two events again imo

Anna tying herself in knots trying to justify running this marathon, just admit that you want to do it because you have a deeply disordered relationship with exercise!

Why does she waste her time writing long paragraphs to essentially convice herself she is superior as usual
of course her pregnancy is 'perfect' why would it be anything other
you don't suddenly decide to run 18 miles for sake of it then enter a marathon for weekend later, it would of been plan all along
no chance would you pay entry fee than decide to not enter a few days later
she thinks just taking it easy will be running 20 miles

She is pathetic and really only purpose of that post was for more arse licking, sounds like her colleagues weren't amazed as she assumed they would be with her continuing her unhealthy addictions in pregnancy so she is looking for attention elsewhere.

I can shed some light here. She deleted the backwards, manually created London Marathon course maybe 12 hours after it was posted on Strava. My theory is that she, or someone else, noticed it was backwards. I saw it. Several of my friends and I sat around waiting for it to be commented on or deleted, because, well. It was obvious something fishy was going on. She deleted it around 11 that night. Not before a lot of screenshotting and downloading had gone on, mind you.

The half marathon stayed up until later in the year, when people began talking about this for the first time on Reddit, in the Advanced Running forum. Several people worked out who it was, even though the OP didn't name names. Hey presto, photos from the marathon deleted from Instagram, and the Half Strava entry (which she had created by using a friend's watch's file) deleted from Strava.

She knew people knew. She would have just hoped nobody ever made it public.

Thanks for the insight! I actually thought they were both deleted off the back of this investigation post, my bad

Yeah, they'd both disappeared by the summer. The deletion of the Half result coincided with it blowing up on Reddit though, albeit with her going publicly unnamed. I'm sure she saw/knew.

I see she has another Daily Mail article this evening, where she claims she had an entry to the 2023 race after having qualified, although I must admit I can't find evidence of this qualifying run on her Power of 10. She didn't run a marathon in 2022. She ran a Half in 88:04, which is a (painful) 4 seconds shy of the Championship qualifying time, and she didn't have a Champs bib at the 2023 London Marathon. It was a normal bib. You can only use a Half to qualify in the Champs wave; a "good for age" time has to be achieved in a full marathon.

Who knows, largely who cares, but I would guess that she actually got that entry via her running media status, rather than qualifying. Power of 10 usually doesn't omit anything.

So it wasn’t a one time thing, she cheated in two races?

She definitely cheated in the Landmarks Half (she's admitted to this today in the press, although she says it wasn't cheating. While describing absolute textbook cheating (course cutting and doctoring results). She cut the course at the Half and took someone else's GPS watch file to add as her own, backing up her official time (she crossed the finish line, knowing she had cut the course, which she claims was accidental but... she's no newbie. She must have known because she cut by quite a lot).

She manually created her London Marathon result on Strava using software to create a GPS file, and downplayed how much Strava matters to her (I assure you, she has 4300 followers which is more than the vasty majority of people on that website, it matters to her). However, there has never been any definitive proof that she cheated in the marathon, given that she removed her timing chip. As such, there is no evidence of anything she did out there on the course. Maybe she ran every step. Maybe she didn't. I know what my suspicions are, given what she did literally 3 weeks earlier in the Landmarks Half, but unfortunately no one will ever be able to prove it.

The thing is… I don’t believe any of her times anymore. Like that. She knew she was cheating, it was deliberated, and planned.

Am I the only one who finds Strava boring AF?

I know right! I just still can’t really get my head around it! I can’t reference the specific posts because obvs they’ve been deleted but I’m sure she was winning vet categories in small local races as recently as 2021, which would be v hard to cheat in
