Rachel Drake is a professional trail runner sponsored by Nike from Portland, Oregon.

In this episode we talk about Rachel’s experience with postpartum return to running, how she’s dealing with a bone injury that she picked up during her post pregnancy, the challenges of being a mom and training as a professional athlete. This is a great episode if you want to learn more about pregnancy and running, what’s important to pay attention to, what could be done to help more mothers stay healthy and enjoy running while breastfeeding and raising a child.
