In today's solo episode, I dive deep into the topic of running during pregnancy. Drawing from 25+ years of experience as a physical therapist and addressing listener questions, I aim to provide evidence-based information, clarify common misconceptions, and help you make confident decisions about staying active while pregnant. With so many challenges to navigate during pregnancy, let's make your choices around running a bit easier.

Key topics covered include:

- Running while pregnant: Can you continue racing?

- Dealing with unsupportive healthcare providers

- Predictive factors for safe running during pregnancy

- Running and urination: What’s normal and what to address

- Using the information you have to make the best decisions

- Common types of pregnancy-related pain for runners

- How running form changes as your pregnancy progresses

- Navigating weight gain and its impact on running

This episode is packed with actionable insights to help pregnant runners feel empowered and informed every step of the way. 

Boost your confidence in prenatal running and make well-informed choices!
