running and breastfeeding

I keep hearing that some people can't run because they are breastfeeding. Is there any reason why? I was really hoping to start running again as soon as I'm cleared for exercise. Thanks in advance for any info.!

    You can run.  Just make sure you feed or pump right before you run.  You also want to make sure that you're eating and drinking enough to keep your supply up.

    I ran while BF.  I needed 2 sports bras, but it never affected my milk supply (but I didn't do more than a 5k either).

    I found this page on KellyMom while doing some research on this a few weeks back. I wasn't a big runner when I BFed my first, so I didn't have to deal with it.
