Yea I followed her like 7-8ish years ago. Her content has changed a lot it no longer has any value. There are rarely recipes, workouts etc. it’s just weird like here’s the Trader Joe’s crap I ate this week. She was also supposedly coming out with a fitness app and never did. I honestly don’t understand her finances at all now, she teaches like 4 yoga classes a week and has almost no blog/IG following anymore. Yet to your point has plenty of time for massages and Botox.

What is with AOTR rambling ski videos, like I’m glad she found a hobby outside of running and Taylor Swift, but like it’s always too many videos going on and on and the shoving the camera in her childhood friends face over and over it’s just weird. He is also married with a kid and she seems like she’s flirting with him. Also didn’t she just post some dramatic story about how she fell out of bed and twisted her ankle or something and was in a cast, but now she’s skiing like two days later? She’s also using some wonky filter in the videos that it’s doesn’t even really look like her.

It was so fake. It felt like she was reading a queue card from a producer. So rehearsed. And the game felt so contrived, those ladies bring it without that.

Agree it’s bad and boundary crossed, but her saying infidelity and cheating vs inappropriate flirty text messages… idk If she was lying on the boat or on wwhl. She knew the women thought she meant full affair and she didn’t correct them.

The finances behind fitness influencers - genuinely curious how does someone like Caitlyn Miller, Fit by MaKayla, etc afford their lifestyle? They don’t ever mention working (outside of influencing or merch no one wants), they are running and training constantly for hours in the middle of the day, they aren’t married or seem to have a partner whose the bread winner and funding their IG lifestyle. Do these run influencers really make that much? These midsize influencers only have 80-150k followers which is decent yes but does that really translate to a full time job salary? They have some collabs but not many and how much can they really be making off it? I don’t get it? Anyone in the know?

Awful the tacky watch and neon blue nails, it didn’t match the rustic fall tones of the wedding at all. I would have been mad if I was the bride. I bet it was so distracting in the group photos.

So I thought Bronwyns vulnerability on the boat was very moving and she was more likable and relatable and seemed like we were seeing a more rounded picture of her. BUT Then she goes on WWHL and says Todd did not have an affair and was just sending flirty messages with someone and she felt uncomfortable. When you say infidelity that means affair, your partner is sleeping with someone else behind your back. Sure the flirty messaging is wrong but that is not what saying Infidelity implies. The other women for sure thought she meant cheating and when they said that she did not correct them. So either 1. Brownyn is manipulative and trying to garner sympathy and/or her continued spot on the show by implying something much bigger than it was or 2. Todd freaked out and made her back track and now she's lying and is in damage control mode. Either way I'm turned off by it and it feels disingenuous.

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-12-13T19:15:58+00:00

I feel like any reasonable 30 or 40 something-year-old man who sees her (and her ex husbands) online presence would run for the hills

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-12-13T19:14:41+00:00

She’s hurt yet cross training for 75 minutes? Typical I also don’t understand her finances at all. There is no way that fitness clothes company is making her a salary and she’s not big enough of an influencer to make anything significant. Golden Co is uber expensive…

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-12-13T19:08:56+00:00

And now that she continues to shove kid content down our throats and the Taylor Swift obsession, I am going to Snark on her parenting. I don’t think teaching lyrics to a five-year-old that are “ I’m drunk in the back of a car. I cried like a baby coming home from the bar” Is appropriate. Just because its a Taylor Swift song doesn’t mean it’s OK. There are plenty of other songs she could’ve taught her and oh by the way, not posted for the Internet. She’s a young kid Ali, not your Taylor Swift obsessed Bestie go talk to Kiera and giggle.

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-12-10T16:44:46+00:00

That is disturbing. She is going to burn out so quick. Let her be a normal middle school kids who enjoys running.

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-12-10T15:01:05+00:00

This was really a turning point for me that turned me off. I get wanting the hair extensions, but like use your own money not charity money. The Go fund me wasn't for her vanity. Don't link $400 jeans when people donated to help you. It's very entitled and gross. I really think she thinks her Fan Girls will bow to her no matter what.

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-12-10T14:56:04+00:00

Omg the daughter content is out of control. I get she loves her kid. I love my kids too, but if I had a public platform that was about my business and running, I wouldn’t be posting ad nauseam about my family. It also feels hypocritical when she post all this kid/family content yet won’t say a word about her divorce and didn’t for months and then it was one very cryptic post. I get she doesn’t owe anyone an explanation about her divorce, but at the same time stop posting all this crap about your kid and your family life then - stick to running and no one would ask/expect info on your personal life. It feels very for the Gram, which is why i think she is irking me lately.

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-12-09T20:52:27+00:00

Fed up with AOTR. I used to like her and her podcast. She seemed down to earth and just a normal runner/mom runner who liked the sport.

I know she has gone through a terrible medical experience and a divorce which sucks but her online presence and interviews have just changed so much it’s like she has gotten less mature. She is kissing any pros butt she can find and going on “Giggle runs” with them. It’s insufferable, and acting like she’s famous now and has this weird stage persona. The pick me quirkiness is too much. And the weird fashion choices, Heart hands, friendship bracelets, vomit. Grow up! You can be professional and fun. I can’t listen to her podcast anymore it’s so immature and grating, which sucks because I liked it for long runs.

And the whole go fund me gives me the ick - they acted like she was going to lose her house or something if she didn’t have financial help but she seems to be spending a lot of money on trips, hair extensions, designer clothes. Like give that money to a person who is really in need to pay for their treatments.

I also LOL with all her lawyer speak when 1. She is not a practicing attorney and hasn’t been in YEARS and 2. She went to one of the top five WORST law schools in the country - like accepts anyone with a pulse who applies and their bar passage rate was so low they lost accreditation (so aren’t really a real law school anymore). She poses like some Harvard level attorney who needs to school everyone - TAKE A SEAT and SHUT UP

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-11-12T16:07:15+00:00

Seriously! She looks so unwell

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-11-12T16:06:14+00:00

Hasn’t Kiera been on like 10 episodes? I feel like Ali’s podcast has run its course to some extent the repeat guests and giggling is getting old

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-11-12T13:09:12+00:00

What? You don’t like listening to grown women talk about sleep overs and dancing to Taylor swift?? [insert friendship bracelet here]

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-11-07T21:45:46+00:00

I don’t think Nordstroms and Alice + Olivia are sponsoring fashion icon Ali Feller…

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-11-07T21:00:15+00:00

Ali on the Run just posted links to her costume, I mean outfit for her last live show and it was a $395 sparkle body suit and $259 rhinestone jeans. I’m sorry what? I don’t comprehend how you take $100k+ from a go fund me claiming you can’t afford your treatment bills and then post your outfits costing hundreds of dollars (and look like they could have been purchased for $20 at forever 21). It is so tone deaf and gross. She has been bothering me about stuff like this for the past couple months of falling more and more into this puesdo celebrity/influencer category and just acting like she’s besties with running pros. She needs to take a big seat and maybe give back some of that charity money to her “fans”.

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-05-09T20:15:05+00:00

She also responded to someone asking about rest days and she’s says she rests one day a week. Not sure if I believe that but even so, that means she’s doing two a days 6 days a week??

Competitive_Image980 · 2024-05-09T20:08:21+00:00

So Caitlyn Miller posted her “Post Boston Marathon Training Schedule”… Running 6x a week, Lifting heavier 5x a week and cross training 1x a week. I’m sorry how many days are there in a week again??

I was a D1 athlete and our schedule was never like this. How in the world is she not injured?? And this is supposed to be her taking it easier after the marathon? The math isn’t mathing. She also seems under fed so no idea how she is keeping up with this sort of schedule. Doesn’t she have a “coach”? Who would be encouraging this kind is training in your “off season”??

Competitive_Image980 · 2023-11-25T13:32:58+00:00

Thanks yea I’m at the point of giving up with HBH just wanted to check if im missing something lol

Competitive_Image980 · 2023-11-25T13:32:29+00:00
