"u running @RunRocknRoll SD full? I'll do 1 later this yr I hope...Until then, 1/2s,10K,5K for charity etc... :) so fun!"

Is Kate saying she's running for charity? I don't remember her saying this before?

_______________________________________________

Many running races have a charitable element, or a cause, associated with them. The R&R San Diego event has 10 official charities.

http://runrocknroll.competitor.com/charities

Normally, part of the entrance fee goes to the charity, while the workers/volunteers on the race course are people associated with the charity benefiting from the event.

Of course, the "running for charity" language assumes an entrance fee was paid. If the entrance fee was "comped", the runner is not supporting the charitable aspect of the event.

With just over a week to go until her race, I am surprised that she doesn't have more to say about her training.

Wonder when she will be flying out?

I have only been to San Diego once. It is a beautiful area. We hiked on Palomar Mountain.

Ex Nurse, I'm sorry for the issues your husband, and ultimately you, had to endure. How sad. God bless you all.

Thanks for your thoughts. LoveMyGrandsons. It was a long time ago, but, obviously, since I spilled it so readily to all of your lovely strangers, I am still affected by it. I wish that I had the good heart of the people here who are giving Iwana the benefit of the doubt. I was feeling a little guilty that my immediate reaction was so skeptical. But, I must say, that the only thing that could have made me more skeptical, is Iwana commenting on our comments.

Oh, well....Iwana, if there is truth that you remarried your ex-wife for no other reason than to ease her final days, then I wish you both peace. My father-in-law left my husband's mother after a mastectomy, 6 months before she was diagnosed with Stage 4. He reappeared in her final weeks and I know that it did give her comfort.

I thought so too at first, but when I read that tweet from Milo where she imagined the two of them together under a blue sky (something like that) it took her fantasy to a whole new level...nothing maternal about it! :)

I didn't see that one--yeah, she sounds pretty unhinged.

Kate Gosselin @Kateplusmy8 7h
Shopping w/ my tweens.Cara got out of car2mail a letter. Me: 'wow how attitudey!' Mady:'Well,look at her! WE have raised her very well!' LOL

Well, if there is any doubt that Mady has been parentified...

I hesitated about posting this because I remember that some posters participate in Rock n Roll marathons. I was curious about the charities/nonprofits that donations go to. Wouldn't you know--

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_'n'_Roll_Marathon_Series#Foundation_controversy

"Foundation controversy

In 2008, the Competitor Group took over Elite Racing, the company that had been organizing the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon. The following year, 2009, an internal audit revealed that the charity in whose name the race had been run, Elite Racing Foundation for Children, Education & Medical Research, had been improperly commingling funds with the for-profit Elite Racing. It further found that the foundation was being operated "in many instances for the benefit of the for-profit,” and that the charity's role in hosting the races had been overstated. As a result, the race had benefited improperly from hundreds of thousands of dollars in public subsidies and grants. In announcing the results of the audit, Competitor said it would return $190,500 to San Diego County and $152,544 to the city of San Diego, spend the remaining foundation funds on health and wellness causes, file amended tax returns, and dissolve the foundation.[3][4] Competitor Group made the final payments in October 2009. Altogether the company returned $344,176 to the city and county.[5]"

There is a lot that is fishy, but it is really difficult to explain the red flags. One example that can be understood is that in 2009, the foundation received $42, 500 in grants and only distributed $2,520.00 in grants for educational and medical research. After reviewing, my guess is that the IRS found that  $600,000 was improperly funneled fom the for profit corporation that runs the marathons and the non-profit foundation ( which has a common CEO--Peter Englehart. 

The Rock N Roll website now lists 10 charities that allegedly will benefit. No proof exists that any donation will ever be made, and, it has  already been proven that they have been unethical. If the donations are actually paid with real money--not phony IOUs--the corporation will take the tax deduction that was paid by the runners. 

I don't want to rain on anyone's parade because it sounds like fun.  That company seems to have come up with an event format that appeals to many runners. But, if anyone is doing it for charity, it is safer to donate directly to your favorite cause.

Here we are, at the end of May, and Kate's just now sheduled to run her first 1/2 marathon of the year--not a full, because she's working on her timing, she says.

Given that she's also planning to run 3 more half-marathons this year, plus a full, and all the charity events in between, I'm with Dmasy in wondering how/when she's fitting in those practice runs, and am curious about her training schedule overall.

I'm not a runner, so I'd love to hear from someone who is.

omg precious! Your horse is cute too :) what's his/ her name? about 9 hours ago
---------
Like Kate REALLY cares what the horse's name is! She never could be bothered to learn the names of people on her show (Mr. Tour Guide Man, Mr. Shop Owner Man, etc.)

Her twitter is so fake it's laughable.
Kate, you keep thinking Twitter is going to keep you relevant and get your another exploitation gig on tv...I hardly think Aussie and Brit teens are going to sway tv execs!

I don't go to her website, it's a shame she had to share her personal mother's day cards with the world.
Kate has absolutely no filters concerning her children. It's appalling.

Mandy said...

Does anyone know what happened to the new "besties" that Kate ran with in LV? Have they disappeared off the map? Is it possible they actually did see or find out that she cheated on her first marathon, but had been talked into signing a confidentiality agreement? That would totally explain them never having anything to do with her again, the strange phenomenon that happens with all her new "friends".

My mother taught me this poem as a child.....

I love me, I love me so
I take myself to the picture show
I put my hand around my waist
I get so fresh, I slap my face!

Woo woo!
=====
HAHAHA!! Oh I love it. Narcissist poems....who'd have thought. Thanks for sharing that one.

I think Kate is more like the Sally Field speech.

"You like ME you really like ME"-lol

It was an earthquake in New Zealand not sure how serious it was but I hope Steve family is okay.

Doesn't the children's privacy mean anything to these fans? They feel that they are entitled to know everything about them as they are growing up. This nutjob, miloandjack tweeted that they are missing Mady's conversations! What in the (bleep) is wrong with them...

miloandjack
@Kateplusmy8 See we are missing all this cute convo of Mady...the kids growin up so fast...how they interacted w/each other! New show COME!

I don't know if she has kids, but would she want the whole internet world to know all of their "cute" conversations? On second thought, this is a crazy sheeple, so there's the answer right there.

==============

Yes, she has several--two, I think. She says REMARKABLY little about them, given all the info she wants on the Gosselin children.

Westcoaster said...

Aw, if you apologize, Katie Irene will unblock you 'cuz she believes in second chances. Hear that Beth, Jamie, Jody? Honestly, how old will her parentifed twins be when they realize just how low her level of social maturity is - 12 ? Her mothering skills are appaling, her recognition of same equally so.

But narcissistic poems - delightful. Thx for sharing.

Yes, now that her new PR firm has told her, "You must NEVER admit to throwing anything out":

Rastafarian ‏@Rastafarian_
@Kateplusmy8 you've got some budding artists! Such gr8 treasures! I'm sure you collect all the cards & artwork for posterity, right? :))

Kate Gosselin ‏@Kateplusmy8
@Rastafarian_ yes and frame them! ( the especially good ones)

Good God, Kate, you will be ANYTHING to anybody for a buck, won't you?

***********************************

FRAME THEM???????????? YOU ARE A LIAR KATIE IRENE!!!!!! You went on national television to display how you cannot WAIT to throw your children's drawings into the trash can! Gleefully, all the while sneering and cackeling at the camera!

Kate, you are like those wackadoo conartists who sit on the internet pretending to be little girlygirls with rainbows and a Justin Bieber crush, trying to scam your latest mark, when in reality you are just some old fart, making faces and practicing your conartist typing skills.

JudyK said...

Dwindle #5...Yay!

That's exactly what she's doing. She.Is.A.Fraud.

And, that, in a nutshell, is why I detest her.

lost the item on Guiliani naming Kate on Fashion Police this evening. hope it comes through.

Kate is a twit said...

This is the tweet about seeing Kate and Jon together. We all assumed it may have been about Mady and Cara going on the cruise. Who knows what else they could have talked about?

chany @dddumb Close

4:45 PM - 26 Jan 12 via web · Details

Also, there have been tweets on and off about Kate sightings that were wrong-so this tweet may not have even been correct.
