Pregnancy is not an illne...Thanks for the comment.<br /><br />Pregnancy is not an illness; it is normal and natural:) Activity is as tolerated--for an elite runner a 7 mile run in the am and pm are just a "walk in the park"--gotta love that. Most likely she will slow down even more as her pregnancy progresses.<br /><br />In the past women were instructed to "take it easy" and running was considered to be contraindicated with pregnancy--but we know too much now:)<br /><br />Currently women are encouraged to exercise at least "30 minutes/day on most days" according to the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) here in US, http://www.acog.org/publications/patient_education/bp119.cfm --on average, women who exercise do better with pregnancy and delivery:)Racy Runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01681038324730748713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-433548040535940445.post-71547203649967900172010-06-01T20:23:34.533-07:002010-06-01T20:23:34.533-07:00Wow....great athlete!
