@kylieholbeck finally done with the race so we can stop hearing about it
Before I sound like a hater, I am also a long distance runner and have completed several marathons and ultras. I guess my main qualm with her/her content is that none of it seems genuine. At one point she talked about how much she hated running and how it wasn’t doing it for her the way she had hoped- YES bc you benefit from follow a training plan! You have to be consistent! Crazy how that works!
I briefly saw on a video or her socials that she was looking for ideas for her marathon training program?? That is mind boggling considering 1.) she ran ONE marathon while complaining the whole time, 2.) is not qualified in any way to be writing that sort of plan, and 3.) there is a plethora of good/FREE running programs online. I feel like she’s riding the wave of running becoming trendy and popular on social media to make a buck from her followers that do not know any better.
After keeping up with her videos and socials for the longest I finally unfollowed. The constant product promoting, trying so hard to stay relevant by switching up workouts every other week, and then the posting about this race was enough for me. Rant over 😅
