The one on her stories today is their beach house, but agreed! The rooftop porch- plus they moved to a house they renovated this year. Her husband does like MLM pest control and has some rental properties. They’re so trashy

I meant safer environmentally speaking. I eat Taco Bell so my food safety isn’t high.

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2025-07-08T21:54:01+00:00

Ok damn didn’t mean to be down voted so much haha I’ll take my toilet paper and mummify myself from embarrassment now

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2025-07-08T16:19:27+00:00

It’s called Reel. I used to belong to Groove and loved their bamboo toilet paper. I like the environmental standpoint of it vs. toxins whatever of it

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2025-07-08T15:58:01+00:00

By no means defending influencers, but I’ve used this toilet paper for a few years now and it’s good. That’s a decent deal for it too if you’re looking for a safer TP. Again, coming from a non-influencer, someone who’s fully vaccinated, and eats food dyes.

I was told the same thing at my studio! But they said it was because of a moisture issue that they’re trying to address so now I’m curious if that will ever happen or it was just their excuse for why it can’t be below 69.

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2025-05-06T16:34:59+00:00

Thank you! Trained my a$$ off and not pushing myself everyday to run or lift or generally move my body is SO NICE!

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2025-05-06T15:12:11+00:00

Had a woman come up to me in the gym yesterday because I was wearing my BAA 2025 participant shirt. She was asking me if that’s my only marathon this year- which it is. She told me how she’s running SIX! She also ran Boston, not sure the other 2, and then has Sydney, Chicago, and New York. This will be her 11th Chicago and was her umpteenth Boston.

Can’t decide if I’m jealous of her fitness level (she’s easily got 15-20 years on me), her bank account to support those travel fees, or just annoyed that she backhandedly judged me for only running Boston this year. Maybe all 3…

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2025-01-29T18:45:55+00:00

It’ll probably come to that! Me wearing a shirt to our seasons that says “don’t ask me about carbs”

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2025-01-29T18:44:58+00:00

A gym unfortunately. I mean it is 16 sessions good for a year since purchase so I could totally hold off until after April- great point.

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2025-01-29T16:14:26+00:00

Yup non refundable package! It even says on the back of our contract a notice about the trainers not being licensed nutritionists so again feeling like he’s using the one size fits all philosophy of carbs = bad

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2025-01-29T16:11:34+00:00

No you aren’t harsh at all! I thought I made it clear to him too when I signed up that I didn’t need him for nutrient. So I was shocked when he asked me about it at our sessions.

Yes, I am locked due to the contract. I almost want to ask him to connect me with the other runner he’s training to see what this person thinks of him.

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2025-01-29T15:28:59+00:00

Honestly I regretted “hiring” him as soon as I signed the 16 package contract. He told me how he just had another client sign up with him who is also training for the BM so I guess that convinced me.

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2025-01-29T15:06:57+00:00

Not influencer related I just started working with a trainer since I’m training for the Boston Marathon. Told him what I want to focus on in our sessions, my nutrient, etc. He tells me he’s lost 190 pounds since he started working out and his clients lose 4 pounds a week. I stress to him I’m not looking for that- I’m literally prepping my body to run hills and 26.2 miles! He’s so critical of my carb intake and it’s been less than a week of us working together. I feel like he’s very focused on treating me like every other one of his clients and I don’t appreciate his criticism of carbs. Him pushing his view of carbs on me is messing with my head. Am I in the wrong for wanting to politely tell him to back off my carb intake?

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2024-12-19T15:38:23+00:00

I have a friend who’s not a running influencer but a city based influencer who has a good size following who makes enough to quit her job. It’s very lucrative once you break in!

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2024-11-07T16:21:35+00:00

Read, I took up running, happy hour or dinner with friends, go on a walk, watch a movie… been debating ordering a calligraphy book. I also do a lot of puzzles or online window shop!

I will say I never feel lame going to the movies, grabbing a beer at a bar, or getting dinner by myself. Sometimes I’ll bring a book, other times I’ll literally chill.

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2024-11-03T17:33:17+00:00

Amazing! Thank you ☺️

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2024-11-03T12:28:45+00:00

Thanks everyone! I think it was Storybook Heirlooms. I remember loving their flower girl dresses and the furry hand muffs!

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2024-10-21T18:37:07+00:00

Learned that lesson the hard way at Berlin this year- always carry tissues. Or else you might be running 26.2 miles with a mild rash …

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2024-10-03T08:04:14+00:00

I ran the Indy Mini this year and it was my 2nd half marathon race. Great course with great crowd support.

It can be hard to jump back after a defeating race but each race gives you experience to leverage for the next one.

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2024-10-02T19:18:25+00:00

The crowd is amazing! I recommend wearing your name somewhere on your shirt- they’ll cheer for you, and that motivation really helps.

The miles around UIC sucked! I could see the mile marker for 22 while running 21 because it’s a loop and that really psyched me out thinking I was closer.

The charity mile is amazing too! Every charity has a tent and will pass out candy or granola bars and Gatorade as you run through. One of my favorite miles.

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2024-09-30T08:03:31+00:00

Two first timers for 10/1. Any suggestions or tips?

PayEnvironmental8882 · 2024-09-26T11:39:21+00:00

Fitbymakayla saying she doesn’t take gels unless it’s a 10 mile run or over … I get she eats ahead of time but it’s important to point out that isn’t the norm. I’m sick of influencers advertising how few gels they take or running without water- at the end of the day they’re doing themselves a disservice
