What happened to this poster?

[snipsnsnails]

She was a pretty serious runner from the Boston area. I thought her name was something along the lines of bostonrun or something, which explains what I remember most.

Is she still around? If so, hi!

We need one of those montages like at the Oscars where it goes back over all the MLers that have left in the year.

[snipsnsnails]

Huh, I don't remember that picture being in her sig, but I think I had sigs turned off for a long period of time.

Looks like she hasn't been around all year. Hope she's doing well!

[Serenity9]

I met her. She seemed really nice and normal!

[snipsnsnails]

Yeah, she was a long-timer, kicking around at the old place. Always seemed nice to me!

There was a poster with that description who had a pretty serious work related sexual harassment thing going on. So maybe she had to stay off line?

I think she may have been pursuing a suit against her employer for sexual harassment.

This is what I remember, too.

Yes, this was the same poster, so maybe it did have to do with that.

I'm not sure it was the person mentioned above by Snark then. 

In her first post she had said she was a newbie "finally intro-ing" but never mentioned being on TN. 

Huh, the other stuff seems to fit. I thought, for sure, she was around on Health & Fitness on The Nest. Maybe she'll jog back in in 2015 and let us know!

Wasn't she at the Boston marathon bombing too?

This is the only thing I remember about her. 

[Ohhmm(bligo)]

SOMETHING HAPPENED. There was a Board Dispute, I'm pretty sure.

NO - maybe I'm confusing her with spott.

[buddysmom]

If I remember correctly someone called her out for being a tragedy whore because she was very affected by the bombing. She decided to step back after that.

I could also be mixing her up with someone else....but probably not.

[buddysmom]

Adding....i don't think she was being a tragedy whore. I can't believe what she went through and felt all kinds of feelings for her.

@bostonjen - Was it this poster? 

[fryjack2]

I am a Boston runner, ran Boston last year, was pretty close to the bombing and posted about it, but I don't think you are talking about me.

Was it Spedracer or something like that?

It's definitely not bostonjen. 

Nope. Not me!

[thebreakfastclub]

I think runboston was the newish poster who was allegedly very close to the bombing. I feel like she posted for a few days, got her attention fix, and then disappeared.

I was on maternity leave then so I read every thread in great detail, lol.

[fryjack2]

Lol! I just wanted to add insignificant tidbits to this thread.

I remember bostonrunnah but don't remember the drama about her.

Of course it's not you! I know who you are! :-p

Yep, it's bostonrunnah and she did take a break after the whole bombing thing, but she did come back to update at least once, I remember. I guess she didn't come back after that.

I am pretty sure the person who got called out about tragedy whoring was sloanpeterson, who I believe lives in same town as the funeral home the older Tsarnaev brother was taken to.  Bostonrunnah was at the finish line during the bombing and saw everything firsthand - I am pretty sure no one called her a tragedy whore over that.

I feel like I remember her name was bostonrunnergal.  Maybe she deactivated that name though.

Are you maybe combining BostonGayGal and bostonrunnah?

A quick peek at bostonrunnah's posting history shows the following:

1 - the harassment stuff was happening in summer 2012
2 - she was at the marathon, saw some bad shit, had some raw words with some posters here during the Boston siege (scary stuff)
3 - posted a month later that she was doing much better and working through some survivor stuff in therapy. Did not appear to be lasting ill-will with her and the board
4 - most of her posts after that had to deal with Crossfit, lol
5- stopped posting around Sept 2013, and unless there was a bunch of shit deleted, it does not appear that it was precipitated by any incident.

but are you sure that wasn't bostonrunfaster? I'm pretty sure her name was runbostonfun.

I sure miss bosruntonnah.

[karmasabiotch]

I've never been to Boaton and only run when someone is chasing me. This post is about me, isn't it?
