Well I'll sure take a closer look at this charity. Where we up to with that?
Has anyone reported to charities commission? If not, I will.
Do we know how much it makes and how much is taken out to pay THEM??
I did. You should report it as well. Claming to have raised 60k and only spending - what 15k? isn't a sign of being a great charity. The fact that she, her chav boyfriend and her chav boyfriend's dad are listed as officers for the charity is pretty bad. It doesn't pass the sniff test.
As for the selfies - I'm not sure glamour photos will help actually convince us that money is helping others. For every crap selfie, she should have a photo of her posing with people who are actually getting the money she raises.
I prefer the selfies. The one with her new haircut might be the best.
Did you get a rely yet from the charities commission?

Seems normal. In fact, 25% is kind of high.

No they, like most British bureaucratic organizations, will get to me sometime before Christmas - if that.

Nonsense.
In her latest Facebook blog she tells how Life bars turned down 120 billion offer from buy out company.
It was 120 million looks like she is not too accurate with figures.
Clif bars autocorrect perhaps she had same problem.
I've asked on her Facebook page if she is planning an ultra.
At the moment she seems to be in Ibiza. Wonder who paid for that?
While the thread is pretty much done and dusted, I hope we can all remember it for the inspirational mud run training video. Honestly, a parody video worthy of featuring on Family Guy, hats off to those two they know how to make people laugh.

We know the answer to that. Charity donations paid for it. She gets her wage from her "charity".
Amy Hughes keeps going full retard and dishonest as ever:

I don't really post photos like this, not because I want my photos to show me at my best or to portray something that isn't real-I like to think I am quite honest and open with who I am and the message I am trying to share. A couple of weeks ago someone said I look to big to be an endurance runner. Whatever that means?! I didn't know you had to be in a weight bracket to run.

Maybe things are different in UK. But here is a typical "charity" in USA:
A Clinton initiative founded in 2002 to save lives infected with HIV/AIDS spent only $23 million of its $140 million of expenditures in 2016 directly on programs, according to financial records on the initiative’s website.
However, of that $140 million, according to its financial report, it initially breaks down its expenditures as having spent $129,662,636 on “program services,†with $10,117,754 on management and $1,035,062 on fundraising.
However, the report later reveals that only $23 million was actually spent on “direct program expenditures.†The rest was spent on a whole host of other non-service related items, including $72,957,333 on salaries and benefits; $16,438,199 on meetings and training; $7,983,180 on “professional and consultation feesâ€; and $7,611,344 on travel.
I think Amy & Dave @25% are well within the expected bounds set by these numbers.
In the UK there are very specific rules about what a trustee can be paid for. Essentially the position cannot be a paid position but you can provide selected professional services and be paid for thide in some circumstances.

Neither Amy or the boyfriend have jobs, so something is funding them. Can only be the charity money.
I wonder how much the holiday is costing that they are currently on? With no jobs, how else could they fund this unless from the charity?
Lilesa says that the Ethiopian government is killing his people, and he could be killed or detained for protesting, but it was something he must do.â€
“Oromo is my tribe,†Lilesa told the scrum of international journalists. “Oromo people now protest what is right, for peace.†He went on: “Maybe I move to another country.â€
Lilesa’s X quickly became one of the biggest and most enduring stories of the Rio Olympics, picked up by The Guardian, The Washington Post, and The New York Times, and giving voice to a conflict in an often overlooked part of the world.
“It was the moment of the Games for me,†WeJo says.
“Running was suddenly very Âunimportant.â€
It was LetsRun at its best. They had broken a big story with a question that had come straight from the message board.
What happened to Feyisa Lilesa???
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/24/sports/olympics/feyisa-lilesa-marathon-olympic-protest.html
It turns out that Feyisa Lilesa moved to...Flagstaff, Arizona.
It is just another coincidence.
It is not a big surprise.

In other words, Amy & Dave are more trustworthy than the Clintons! And Guinness still won't certify them?

Nobody said you might be too big to run, they questioned if you were lean enough to be a world class multi day runner. Stop the lies."
Stop the lies?
There is no one here who wants to do that.
