I saw Marco del wotsit was moaning on the Instagram guys page (@mossi is it?) when there was all the fuss about reels. Marco claimed his story was one worthy of people knowing about and they were missing out due to the algorithm. I had unfollowed Marco ages ago as it was a snore fest but went back to check, yep still the case. But anyway, he is one of thausands of white men who got pudgy in middle age and so took up running to get back fit. Literally nothing unique about his story at all!

I do hope Ronhill stick to the all abilities and diversity part of their post, so many of these "ambassadors" are already privileged and not a diverse group at all.

I hope they trawl back through the posts of those who apply and dig out the people who have regularly worn Ronhill, and really love the brand. I really hope we don’t see the same old faces popping up.
 
Are Hilly socks Ronhill 🤯 I love my hilly socks so feel a bit silly not to know this!
I can remember when "Ronhills" were mainly those trackster pants with footstraps which came in many bright colours. A male lecturer at college always wore them with a t-shirt tucked in 😯 it was hard to know where to look when he jogged up the stairs😬

I really don’t understand people applying to be ambassadors for things they aren’t invested in. A one off freebie from a company, fine, they do a post and if they don’t love it that’s it, but to be an ambassador you have to consistently show the brand and products.

The frontrunner applications earlier in the year were hilarious, people decked out in Nike, adidas etc but with the # for the application. I love a couple of pairs of my Asics shoes. Not a fan of their clothing personally. Why would I want to be a frontrunner if I then have to be kitted out in Asics for every post and race?!
 
The stories charlie did re the guy criticising walking during a race (imo he's a dick) were just a reason for her to show off how many she has done.
Then she just had to come back to point out she had a gfa marathon place. Because you know she needs the validation. She winds me up so much. These unnecessary stories are up there with the day she did the school run in her ultra hoodie and medal, cringe
