It's depressing that her reaction to injuring her back lifting her baby out of the cot isn't "well maybe this shows having a very small child and training for a BQ isn't very compatible - why don't I put it on pause and prioritise my son" but "spring marathon BQ attempt! This time it will be different!"

Does she live in Reading? I thought I recognised some of her running route…

I believe she is Caversham. I no longer live in the area but was visiting family and we were on a walk along the river.

She lives in Caversham but does a lot of her running along the Henley stretch of the Thames.

Yeah whatever happened to this big fancy home gym that they paid so much to have spruced up and looking all fancy. Not seen her story about it in months and months when it was going to be the place she’d spend all the time training for her BQ?!

Aha that would explain it. I have to go to Caversham regularly and run down that stretch of river which is why I thought it looked familiar! I’ll have to look out for her

She just likes to pretend like she lives in Henley or Marlow because they’re more posh sounding than Caversham..

There is nothing this woman wouldn’t do. What a sellout
I just don't understand why she went? I mean, obviously she got paid, but she has an actual real job that pays her (and if she needs more income, then she could increase her hours back to full time?) And money isn't everything - it's pretty obvious that she didn't actually enjoy herself.
Plus while it's great for children to see their mums working (I'm a working mum - not criticising that at all!), her 12 month old baby is hardly going to be proud or inspired that she flew across the Atlantic to sell jewellery at an expo.
It didn't seem like any close friends of hers were running that she needed to be there to support, so I'm just confused as to she was there. I love watching marathons but I love spending time with my children much more...

Yeah it’s bizarre. I really don’t think she needs the money! I think she is still desperate to be relevant and insta famous. I also cringed hard at her peloton live class reel.
Also don't get at all why the jewellery brand chose her to work for them? She’s not that big of an influencer (at all) in the States, I doubt many know who she is (although she does get brought up on r/blogsnark

I just can’t deal with the fake running photos. She does not run like that at all.

I see she’s been at peloton in New York as well. More freebies no doubt and reckon she’s got some work with them or trying to get in with them? She seems to be pushing them a bit more in her crappy content so it’s making me think
