The three runs comment made me confused. IF she was running she would be posting the content constantly! Fitness content is easy content to generate and is so popular on instagram. Heck even leaky posts fitness content all the time.
Also how does claiming you are doing three runs make you 'fine'?.
Yes it’s literally 3-5k virtual runs (Disney Pineapple Whip Soft Serve Challenge I believe) 2hrs of exercise max and I’m being generous. If she stops flapping her fupa for a minute she might be able to get it done in June although she has until the end of August to complete this super hard challenge.
She signed up for Disney virtual runs and they have to be completed by the end of August
And you can rack up more than the required distance just through normal movement, especially with so much time alloted. She's not actually going run the whole distance in one go and get sweaty or exert herself. What a joke.
You guys are not being fair re: her lack of training. After all, she was just on a RUNway! 😏
Black eye to match the black toe
There are several runs that take place every month in Canada that people can sign up virtually for. Locally if you just go to your local running room website, you’ll find links to local runs. Usually you have to register ahead of time to get the race bibs or T-shirts and then to be on the list to be able to get a finisher medal, but many times people who run regularly will just show up and run for fun. Meanwhile, others are often raising funds for something (and you can often create your own website links to have family and friends support your runs). I don’t know what Disney is raising money for. I don’t know if individuals can choose? I don’t know if Disney actually gives any donations to any causes or people just do a run for fun? I hope that people do use their platforms or “celebrity” to raise funds for foundations that need help but again some people are just running for fun and for their mental health so it’ll be a different situation for everybody.
The reason she may not be announcing what runs she’s doing because people can look up names and see what races people are doing, and even find out their finishing times. Like, even when we do the CIBC run for the cure, or Terry fox runs or anything we create our own customized fundraiser pages and then you can send links to your families to donate to on your behalf. So I’m pretty sure she’s just safeguarding where she will be in when which is actually a good idea for anybody.
I would like to add that being a runner does not make somebody superior to others, that would be a very ableist way of looking at the world. Yes, running is a free activity, but it is not always safe for people to do as their form of exercise and not every body is capable of running.
I don't disagree that you can and should be safe guarding the locations of where she is. In fact I highly recommend, and not disclosing any specific race she is going is a good idea!
But my point is more in relation to the fact that if you are doing three runs in a month, you are (or at least should be) training in some capacity for them. Whether that means outside running or on a treadmill at home/gym. THAT is all content! It shows setting a goal and the determination of working towards it. It shows hard work and perseverance. And even taking into account what you are saying about safe guarding locations, it can be anonymous type posts that don't disclose that ...feet running on the pavement, a post run sweaty selfie, a photo of an apple watch/garmin showing her run stats, talking about how she went for a run, achieved a personal best, or her legs are so sore the next day for her run. Its easy content too! And from an influencer who make constant posts about nothing on her phone all day, it just makes it hard to believe.
Absolutely agree that would be helpful to anyone who wants to set goals too. That’s what my marathon running friends do:). They post their Garmin /Apple results for like distance and PRs. Mind you my friend who’s the most dedicated to running changed their whole socials to be about fitness so I see the content about it nonstop. People can also register for races with just their first initial, or just the last initial of their last name, and their first initial to keep more anonymous. If anybody is interested, the running room does cost money if you’re actually enrolling in a program and you kill three weeks with a group so you have that safety and specialized training, but two days a week you can meet with a local running room, and just tagalong for free. It keeps you safe and if you look at the schedule of when these running groups are starting, you can go from being a non-runner to running a 5k or 5k runner to running a 10k etc. They even have walking groups. Once you’re in this type of community, they communicate with a quite regularly about upcoming races, runs and challenges. I do miss being a part of it and I’m slowly getting back into it, but I will say that running on a treadmill is very very easy compared to running on pavement so if anyone is training specifically on a treadmill without going outside and then expecting to run the same distance, please don’t make this mistake!
Hello new Lemmy friends!
Word on the street tells us our community is regularly making it the all page. While this is very cool news to hear, we can see how the sudden emergence of our posts in your feed might feel jarring and probably raises some questions. And also how, without knowing the backstory, our community might appear less than virtuous, so here’s a very brief introduction which hopefully will clear a few things up.
The woman we’re discussing is a body positive influencer and media personality who has gained fame and wealth by lying, manipulating, exploiting her children for content, plagiarizing BIPOC creators and blaming her BIPOC content editor for it (thereby ruining her career), among other things. Her fraudulent behavior is no different (I’d argue worse) from the likes of Jay Shetty (google him if you don’t know who he is or what he did). She’s the latest in a long line of grifting influencers who are abusing their power, taking advantage of their position and exploiting their followers. The difference is that she’s Canadian. Our laws around social media and advertising aren’t as clear (and where they are she’s disobeyed them), add to that, our mainstream media has protected her from those who’ve tried to expose her grift and silenced/intimidated anyone who’s tried to speak out.
Our Reddit sub was taken down due to reports of copyright infringement, which is unfounded and categorically untrue as no one ever tried to steal her work and pass it off as their own. The mods have made an appeal. While at first glance it may seem like we’re just “shitting on her” the sub has been more devoted to investigation and posting proof of her lies than just bitching for the sake of bitching. The reality is that she’s hurt, manipulated and let down a lot of people. She stole intellectual property and employment, caused mental distress and has repeatedly told lies to boost engagement and profit off her audience, so people are understandably upset that their voices are being silenced.
We’re grateful to have been welcomed so kindly by so many of you, and to those sticking around to watch the drama unfold, we’re glad to have you!
