Definitely were gifted trainers. When was the last time any of you purchased Saucony, wore once and forgot about? 🙄🙄 Must be nice getting free shit all the time that you can't even keep track.

Anyone else hate talking vids? No one cares. Save it for your smirk selfie post.

Oh my god and stop using #chicagomarathon You're not even running it 😡🙄

I’ve just seen these stories, she definitely looks likes she’s limping really bad in them as the walking movement is really off

You don’t need to bring colour into it.
These people are wanting people to come and spend money in their towns

Forget about anyone colour, you are making it about colour

much as I think Welsh and Kellogg are dicks no one is being racist

It is racist.

Kelly’s school trip videos could not be more racist. I never saw her visit a school in her area and fawn over the kids. This was ‘poor black children’ and the most unpalatable watch.

Suggesting black people are genetically wired up to be better runners has been proven to also be racist (can’t find the evidenced research to hand, but will continue to look)

Most white people have internalised racism that they don’t even realise they have and I can only suggest you consider exploring this.

I highly recommend Layla Saad’s work as a great platform for anyone wanting to gain a better understanding of the point other commentators are trying to put across here.

Hard agree. And realistically the locals will not be profiting off those trips, just foreign owned tour companies

I wad thinking about this whole trip ethics. Is it any different to European people travelling to India to learn/practice yoga?

For me it is the fact it is a company in England making a profit out of sending white middle class people out to gawp at the locals in Kenya. Would it be different it it were the locals who set it up and said "come on out here and train with us." Likely they would be more selective on who they invite!

It is quite the same as yoga/India .. also fraught with racist undertones.

It only takes a brief glance over these Insta influencers Gram presence to smell white middle class privilege.

Layla Saad is a great recommendation (and a good IG follow). I've been meaning to get the recently released youth edition of her book for my kids; thanks for unknowingly reminding me!
 
3 hours??? I don’t even think my Ironman training husband ever sat on his trainer that long…. There insanity! What is the point, especially since it’s lovely weather outside. Get out and bike if you need to bike for 3 hours.

Okay, just seen the story her road bike is not serviced, honestly 3.35 on a trainer is madness, Has she not run properly at all recently?

Seems to be the latest trend with the instafucks, zwifting into oblivion. Ben Parkes has done 3 x 100k recently too, it's all about the likes innit

I mean honestly…. My Ironman training husband never ever did 100k on his trainer. 🙈 it’s pathetic it really is. I get spinning your legs, as biking is good for running, but not 100km! I don’t even think the likes of Frodeno and Lucy Charles go on their trainers for that long. 🤣 it cracks me up - it’s a total addiction to exercise!

I haven’t got that book, but used a lot of what I learned working through the Me and White Supremacy journal for opening discussion with my teen son.

The book was a game changer for me, someone who had always insisted ‘I’m not racist’. Processing the deeply rooted racism I hold simply by the very fact that I’m white was tough to work through, but I’d encourage everyone to go do it.

The white people’s trips to Iten actually boil my piss. At a push I can stomach pro elites needing specific high altitude/high temperature training. But even then there are other places to train that don’t involve black tourism.
 
That's the cleanest background she could find and there's still shite everywhere. In every corner there is crap. They really are a filthy pair. Take an hour. Set your watch for a workout ffs, clean and call it cross training 😂😂 Obviously didn't take care of that part of the garden yesterday 🙄

'only jumped on for some cross training... Kept going and did 100km'

You don't just end up doing 100km so stop lying, it was the original plan and you just want to make it sound casual.

Also, has she officially signed up to Chicago Marathon now or is she tagging them in everything to blag a trip?
