In a story earlier this week, Bird said SHE’S FINE! …and then casually added that she’s doing 3 runs this month.

It is June 15. When are these runs, exactly? Are they real? And we would know if she’s training….because of course we would.

Anyone know what she’s on about?

    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!
