"Utah Runner Girls" are under fire for posting unattainable runs and staying silent on politics. Here, we spoke to a few who are fighting the stereotypes.
The Utah running scene, and Utah in general, doesn't represent the diverse country this country is becoming as a whole. Praying before races, staying silent on politics and the issues in the world, only surrounding yourself with white people is nothing like what this country is and will be.
The country's demographic and belief systems are changing fast and some Utah girl can't mask that. You might think that because you have tunnel vision watching videos like Athlete special, clayton young, or whatever.

You want the real deal watch Luis Orta's videos.
Compared to the state as a whole, the Utah running scene skews liberal. Utah isn't all that far from the U.S. median of racial diversity (#18 in terms of population percentage identifying as white). It's totally possible to be a social activist fitness influencer without posing as a victim of oppression while living in the state frequently ranked #1 as the top place to live. We believe in you, you can do it!

Guess what? This country, and all "The West" (EU/NATO) countries are trending to the Right. More diverse = more Hispanic, Islamic, etc = more conservative and more praying before races/etc. Belief systems are changing fast, against you. The "staying silent on politics," as in quiet suffering under the systemic racism, sexism, anti-citizen, anti-victim of your status quo is ending. You had your high water mark, now you're off to the dustbin of history.

Yeah sure. Enjoy your time on top, Nazi boot licker.
Have you applied for the job where you wear a mask all day and kidnap people off of American street corners yet?
