You have heard about this, right?

I love it that she said running a marathon was so much easier than labor. She said this in an interview I saw on TODAY SHOW.

Not something I would ever do or even want to attempt to do.

    That is insane, and this is coming from someone who ran two half-marathons and two 10-mile races while pregnant. But I did all of that during my first 2 trimesters, and I did not run a full marathon, which is much more grueling.

    Honestly, if a woman is in great shape and wants to run a marathon while in her first or second trimester and had the support of her doctor, I wouldn't really think anything of it. But running a marathon while full-term is just insanity.
