Any other runners out there?

[redneckhippy]

I was just wondering if there are any other ladies out there still running (or doing other exercise) through the third trimester? I've gotten so much slower and I have to stop several times throughout my run to catch my bretah, but I still love running and feel so much better on days when I can get out there. I'm actually a little stressed because it's getting cold here and while normally I would still run in the snow, I'm not willing to take the fall risk with my little one inside.

I'm sure I look rediculous out there with my big belly, but honestly it's the secret to my sanity. Anyone else? And if so, what are you doing as winter sets in?

I admire you so much. I love to run but I've never managed it while pregnant. Good for you xx

I was never really able to run as when I got pregnant it was winter here so I had the fear of slipping right from the beginning. By the time it got warmer I wasn't able to do it.
I did swim instead though which is really nice, especially in the third Tri as it takes a lot of the pressure and weight off your body. I'd suggest swimming instead of running at this point. It's als a great way to keep your muscles toned and ready for labour!
