This is a weekly thread for runners who are due June 2014, that is posted on Mondays. All who run--or who want to start running--are welcome, regardless of mileage, pace, ability, size, shape, or terrestrial status. This is a place to talk about running while pregnant, training, runs, races, gear, recovery, nutrition, and whatever else we can think of.
Anyone who posts here regularly should feel free to start the thread on Mondays if it seems to be missing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ How were your runs this week?

How were your runs this week? Lay it on us... My long run this week was only 8 miles since I am in the final week of my taper before the Philly Marathon. It went well and I got to run with a favorite running buddy which is always fun! We kept around 9:20 pace, and it felt comfortable.
This is my first rodeo so I will be following along for the answers from STM+! Most of my winter running gear is compression so I am interested to see if that helps or hinders me as I get bigger. Almost of all of the women in my running group are mommas who have run through their pregnancies so I am lucky to have a lot of resources to get ideas from!

No runs this past week but I need to get out there because I have a 5K on Thanksgiving and don't want to be horrible.

I have never run through a pregnancy, but I do have some shirts that I trust will work well for me for at least the next few months. They are from Walmart's Danskin Now collection, a bubble tank with a drawstring at the bottom, and they are nice and long, so I feel like the length and extra width in the body will work well for me. (Sorry, can't find a link.)
I'm so excited that I finally have a response for this post. My energy miraculously reappeared last week, and I am so thankful it did.
How were your runs this week? Lay it on us...I did 3, 3 mile runs. I planned on doing more over the weekend but we just got bogged down with house work and other plans. But, 9 miles has never felt so good!
This is my first, but I haven't gained much weight yet and most of my workout tops were pretty loose to begin with. A friend of mind said when she was pregnant, she went to the Nike outlet because they have a ton of larges and XL's in stock. She said she stocked up on those and they worked out fairly well, so I plan on doing the same.

I did not run thru my last pregnancy; I started after DD was born. I do have an underwire sports bra from Elomi that I love...I was an H while nursing!
I ran 9 miles this week!! I didn't run Thu-Sun. But I feel better that I got some exercise in.
I'm hoping for 9+ miles this week too.
no maternity work out clothes. first pregnancy.
Run ladies... run!!!
Old Navy also has bubble tops just like these!
Not good. I think I was out twice the whole week. We were on vacation and walked around a bit, but will NEED to pick up the running habits again this week. Give me motivation!

GTKY: I just continued to wear my regular workout clothes. I love the Lululemon CBRs (cool racerbacks) they are longer to begin with and stretch well but also return to regular after. I have them in like 12 different colors.
