Hi Janae! We met a few years ago at the Boston Marathon and I have a random question for you today! I just had my first baby, a beautiful baby girl, five weeks ago. I’m just starting to think about what returning to running will look like. Over the years are there any specific core/pelvic floor/glute strengthening things you have worked on postpartum as you return to running? Thanks!
