Never underestimate how easy the masses have the wool pulled over their eyes.[
Guy asks legitimate questions, now getting personal abuse from the cult members. Very reminiscent of Rob Young.
Strange how they blindly believe that such greatness can be achieved off very average actual race performances.

I had the same abuse on the Rob Young FB page. Like water off a ducks back after years on here! I questioned his wiki pb's & they'd reply with my times are not on power of 10. Hmm a 2 hour half not up - real mystery! Well all his pb,s have disappeared from wiki.
Why does not say ' here is my Strava link's Just deny & deflect.
Most of us have jobs and can't afford to spend weeks on a jolly round the balearics.
If she runs for the reason stated why was she 'furious' with Guinness.
Have just seen the Facebook post.
It's amazing Any accused him of being a bully but has allowed all sorts of abuse to be posted against him on her page. Most of the comments would see you banned here.
Anyone can see the post it's on 53:53 marathons.
Someone asks for her to post Garmin data and she equates it to being bullied and asked about her bra size.
That's our Amy! What a farce.
Most runners can't wait to share their Strava data with you. Whether you asked for it or not.
If I claimed to run 525 miles on a treadmill do you think they would accept this with no questions asked?
There are numerous abusive comments from her fanclub but somehow she is fine with that online abuse.

Indeed! I posted the message i sent her on here, its on the previous page. You can see its not bullying or insulting or abusive, and I sure didn't ask about her bra size, etc. What an exaggerating drama queen!
It was a simple request to follow the trip and see her watch data!
My tone was sarcastic and doubting, but that's not bullying or abuse.
She is one crazy loon

She is the type of character that if anyone HAD sent messages or made posts on her social media that were bullying or sexual, etc, she would have made screen shots and posted for attention. I have never seen any evidence anyone has done this on any of her numerous social media accounts.
Just more lies.

What is it with the Brits? They are all world record holders.
Yeah Amy is back:
Guys, sorry for being a lazy ba$tard and not reading the thread (sorry, I was finishing up an 800 mile run last week, done over 5 days), but what was the main consensus here by the letsrun phony-busters: how many, approximately, miles did she actually have proof of running? I know one guy was mentioning there was some video evidence of doing a fairly high amount of miles (but nothing like she claimed). About how many did y'all guess?? 100? 200? 300? just curious.

My computer analysis of the videos gave a calculation of 473 miles total for the treadmill if she actually ran 19 hours average every day and didn't cheat more than I previously found. That's a big if.

No where near as good as the classic 'mud video'....I'm hoping we'll see more of these type of videos as she run / walks / cycles / taxi's her way around the Balearic Islands.
It just gets worse for Amy and Dave: Alice Burch (another Brit) ran 60/60, and is cuter, blonder and smarter, i.e. actually able to carry a GPS tracker and successfully get GWR to sign off on the record. Well done Alice!
Assuming this is the same person (name is fairly unusual and the geography matches) she has some reasonable times up to Half Marathon

So that's twice she tried for a record and twice was declined as no watch data!
Is she completely dim?
There is no data for the 53 marathons. However did she think she'd get a record? By supplying a note from her boyfriend saying she did it!?!
Guinness are really slack usually. Look at the scammers Parvaneh and Larry Macon. They have scammed Guinness many times by just creating races and signing each other off as a finisher when they weren't even there!
So the fact Guinness told Amy to get lost twice shows just how rubbish her evidence was!
Yes, that Alice woman had all the watch data and the 60 marathons were real from what I can see

Amy accusing someone of online bullying then allowing dozens of abusive posts on her Facebook page, all aimed at one person.
None of the replies by her fans give any back up to her claims just largely abusive language aimed at one person.
Damn if she wanted to do it, she could just inform Guinness about it and they would sent a jury :/
