Forums >Look What I Can Do!>19 wks pregnant and 400 miles! - UPDATE- 875 miles during pregnancy
Is this your first baby?
This will be my second little midget but I didn't run during the 1st pregnancy. I didn't get hooked until my first one drove me batshitcrazy and I realized running was a great stress reliever.
I don't half-ass anything
"I have several close friends who have run marathons, a word that is actually derived from two Swahili words: mara, which means 'to die a horrible death' and thon, which means 'for a stupid T-shirt.' Look it up." - Celia Rivenbark, You Can't Drink All Day if You Don't Start in the Morning
I fly.
Congrats. I ran during both of my pregnancies - although with my second I was forced onto the elliptical by my doc after 6 months...
Good luck keeping it up!
Bring it on.
Congrats Now, let's just hope your uterus doesn't fall out while running...

I just hit the 5 month mark and I also hit 500 miles on foot and a little over 200 on my bike! I plan on sticking with it as long as possible but the heat is slowing me down so I may be biking more. I joke that I'm growing a triathlete - we run and bike while she swims!

Very cool! Happy to hear that things continue to go well. Hope the Summer is not particularly hot. I avoided heat issues during later pregnancy by getting knocked-up in May and delivering in Feb.

remind your lungs how much they like the taste of air.

Good job kunland. Very impressive.
Great job Kunland!! Keep it up! Have you started wearing the 'yes I asked my doctor' shirt yet?
Not yet - I've been too lazy to actually make it! It's been so flipping hot the past two days (95 degrees) that I've just been going all Nat-Geo style and letting my big pregnant belly hang out while I run in my doubled up sports bras. Hey, if you got it (belly) - flaunt it!

Dude.
Quit talking about me out here in the GSP.

That is awesome.

That is awesome: "letting my big pregnant hang out while I run in my doubled up sports bras"
I'm 14 weeks pregnant and plan on trying that this coming week. Running at 6am without a toddler in a joggy stroller helps too!

I did another Nat Geo style run today with my big ol' belly hanging out. I'm 6 months now so I'm much larger now. I figure if people want to stare, they can look all they want. Plus, it kind of makes me feel like a bad ass mother runner!
Am I doing this right?

You would get a honk and a holler from me. Keep up the good work.
No excuses....

not bad for mile 25
bad ass mother runner!
