Yeah I mean that's just luck isn't it. Plenty of super hard, committed runners get pregnant and then can't run because of sickness or complications or whatever. It's not being "tough" it's just luck of the drawer.

THIS!

I'm a very tough person, but I couldn't run at all while pregnant (just first month). Narrative has gone from pregnant=sick to pregnat=superwoman, no limits.
And it really depends on the women/pregnancy

I had SPD from 9 weeks. Felt like I was being split in two just walking and that was the end of me running in pregnancy. It is just luck completely.
 
I didn't start running until after having children but I had SPD both times so could barely walk as well as hyperemesis so I couldn't keep water down and was repeatedly hospitalised. I have friends who have been able to run or go to the gym throughout pregnancy without any problems (they slowed down and adapted to their changing shape etc but they were active before and stayed active) it's absolutely luck. Yes be active if you already were and feel capable of it but it does feel crap when you've had a rough pregnancy and would never have managed that stuff...and also yes, if you've got loads of followers some sort of disclaimer that you were active before and are keeping it up as your body is letting you is probably a good idea.

Another SPD sufferer here, and yeah, being "tough" has nothing to do with it! I was lucky to avoid SPD with my 3rd child by doing very minimal walking and avoiding all stairs and hills. Can't imagine having hyperemesis on top of that!

Happy little runner, another OnlyFans wannabe. Her half naked photos get 5k likes, her artistic photos get sub 1k likes.

Looking at where she hangs out (Kensington and St Katherine docks) she's another one of those quadrillionaire living off mummy and daddies money...

She probably has VERY low self-esteem, living off of the Likes she gets on Instagram. I was once told you can never trust a person who only has solo selfies on their Instagram page. I really wish woman would stop objectifying themselves on Social media platforms just for that little dopamine hit..

Also - who sunbathes in a PARK in their bikini!

Just looked at her account, very odd. I mean her body looks amazing, but there’s not much running content, is there?! All very very poses!

Does she run in the clothes/underwear she’s posing in, with perfectly curled hair?!!
How old is she? Difficult to say as her face looks like she’s had filler/botox
 
"Sharing my love of running, the outdoors, literature and photography"

Lol. Tell us more about your love of literature, while posing in bikini.

She doesn't seem to sweat, if she is running ... And given the amount of cleavage in some of those shots, those running bras are NOT supportive, either...
 
I saw happy little runner

I saw her on the bbc, not sure if it was at London Marathon and she looked a lot older than she did on insta

She is in her late 40's, obviously has had a lot of work done and uses face tune and edits her body too looking at actual race photos. It's a shame she feels the need to do this.

Late 40s!! OMG. She must be face tuning to the absolute max!!

I always thought she was in her forties. I feel vindicated. She’s had so much work done that it’s beginning to have the opposite to the intended effect.

Once you cross a certain line with fillers and Botox, you immediately will be clocked as the oldest person in the room because of the efforts gone to hide it.
 
Sorry just caught up! Was absolutely heartbroken! Meant to be doing London, did a second deferral because of pregnancy but not heard anything to pay for 2023 and the help desk said can’t defer twice, yet I have all the emails saying you can when it’s pregnancy related!! So hopefully it will be sorted!
I ran to 23 weeks then pissed blood so stopped 😂

Is anyone else just feeling like runnerbeans should be spending time with her new family, rather than posting links to clothes to make money?! And asking what people want her to review… so she can then link and people buy giving her a wage! Has she realised that working what 1 day a month in the NHS will equate to the shittest maternity pay ever!! Also I feel like she’s bragging about going out running, if she had had the baby she would be spending time bonding rather than that! Plus most people take at least a couple of weeks off to recover! I’m clearly in a very foul mood today!

Also that Ash complaining about sleep! I have a 6 month old who wakes hourly, she’s satan reincarnated but I don’t go on about it! I just get on with life like all parents do! We had a breakthrough last night,,, so my 4 year old woke me up earlier than the baby which was annoying! But again I don’t pass them to grandparents to deal with so I can sleep. I basically am now used to not sleeping and every 3 weeks I go for a nap 😂

I sympathize, my daughter is definitely not a sleeper...

I also couldn't defer my 2021 place, even though they said you can, I just gave birth a couple months before the marathon, and I'm not an Instagram super mum, I wasn't prepared for that hahahahaha

That happy little runner account is disturbing...
