"Pregnancy increases a woman’s chances of being targeted for a number of reasons, including heightened difficulty for them to leave abusive partners. Mississippi has become a hotspot for these deaths in large part because of lax gun laws and restrictive abortion access, both of which have been proven to increase violence against pregnant women."

Some random #running thoughts from a #postpartum hobby jogger this morning:

1. YESSSS MOLLY & HANS #BlackCanyonUltras 🥖

2. I’ve always considered myself pretty disciplined with training and workouts, but being a parent to a senior (dog) and an infant (human) has taken this to a whole new level. There is no “I’ll do it later,” there is only “I have an hour and need to make it count.” Plus, I want to make my kid proud. He has become my greatest “why.”

3. Returning to running postpartum has been an adventure. Long way to go before I’m even close to where I was before, but it’s so fun getting to rebuild. Leaning more on (indoor for now) #cycling now and having a blast with that. Thankful for all of it.
