Third Trimester Athletics

I know that I'm late to the post on this one, but did you all hear the story of the mother who ran the Chicago Marathon at 39 weeks? Before the expectant mothers over at pregnancy.com lose their minds, it is important to note that Amber Miller had the complete support of her doctor and her husband. As the author notes, this "was neither her first pregnancy, her first marathon, nor her first pregnant marathon". I applaud her determination, both to complete the race and to oppose the collective wisdom of the crowd.
