The Pelvic Floor Project

42. When postpartum running doesn’t go as planned


Listen Later

In this episode, I sit down with Celia Peters, runner and mom. Celia shares her struggles with postpartum recovery despite doing everything she could to prevent them. She brings a honest and refreshing perspective while inspiring others to become experts in their own body. 

  • Celia’s goal to be proactive and prevent postpartum issues
  • What things she did to prepare during pregnancy and for birth
  • Things that stand out with the early postpartum period
  • “Comparison is the thief of joy”
  • Harmful messages Celia had heard and how she has learned to change her mindset
  • Where she is now
  • Her message to other postpartum moms

Celia is a former elite middle distance runner who continues to love running for its ability to challenge herself, explore new cities, and wind down after a busy day working in tech sales. 

Through Celia’s recent pregnancy and the birth of her daughter Oona, Celia has developed an interest in women’s health and challenging outdated norms around pelvic health. So far, Celia’s postpartum return to running has been different than she expected - and she’s learning to appreciate and be patient with each step ahead.
