Johnny Manziel isn’t the only member of his family making headlines this week.
The quarterback’s wife, Bre Tiesi, fought back against reports that she had cut corners while participating in a recent race.
“How sad and pathetic that people even try and makes these types of accusations…,” Tiesi began. “First of all I didn’t check in we drove straight on were met by a staff member and we walked to the front of the line to start off the event never even registered nor was anyone every [sic] waiting at each station to check u in for each marker etc.
“So this ‘unaccounted’ time is a joke, we were there to help host and build awareness!! 2 this charity people what’s wrong with u!”
She participated in the Divas half-marathon in Temecula, Calif., earlier this month, sharing a photo of herself on Instagram after crossing the finish line. But that’s not all Tiesi posted.
She later shared a screengrab from the website LetsRun.com with the post titled, “Is Johnny Manziel’s wife the latest to be exposed as a road race cheat? Yes, we think she is.”
The site alleges, referencing the race’s timing guide, that “Bre covered the first 6.4 miles in 1:31:29 (14:15 per mile). She didn’t record an 11-mile split but ended up at the finish (13.1094 miles) in 1:58:22. That defies logic.”
The former CFL star’s other half went on to describe herself as a “full time athlete,” providing further insight into her athletic background.
“Cardio is not really my thing so that’s what I mean by ‘I didn’t train.’ I went thinking I’ll have the heart to run or I won’t but I’ll finish, could be 5 hours .. didn’t care,” she wrote.
“We were by no means trying to get some amazing time,” Tiesi continued, noting she has an “awful knee injury” and was “so proud of us for finishing.”
Tiesi went on to slam her critics, writing, “U should be ashamed for ur accusations. If this wasn’t for a charity even I wouldn’t even respond.”
To further state her point, Tiesi also shared a screenshot from an online search about how long it takes a person to run a half marathon, which is between 1:30 and 2:00.
“My first half marathon in exactly 2hours! We had so much fun and loved supporting @runlikeadiva in support of #breastcancerawareness im so proud of us @khloe ? @[email protected],” Tiesi shared.
