Hangry shouldn’t be a main character trait 😝

The epitome of pregnancy FOMO is ordering high carb energy gels to fuel long runs that likely won’t happen for another 6-12 months 😂 but srsly! I can at least taste test the flavor and texture even if my long runs nowadays as out around 60 min! 🙃
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hope this helps YOU in your journey to finding new high carb fueling options!

Celebrating yesterday’s Broad Street (10 Mile) Run at 27 weeks pregnant! I have been hearing so many awesome things about this race since I moved to Philly almost three years ago and I totally get why!! 🤩 What a FUN, flat, energized course!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Honestly, this race had THE BEST crowd support of any non-marathon-major race I have ever run! The signs were funny. The crowds were pretty constant & energetic. There were several bands & live performers on the course… it was just AWESOME!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
At nearly 28 weeks pregnant, I ran this just for fun AND to pace my husband in his LONGEST run ever! I am so dang proud of him & im hoping we get to eace together again in the future!!!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thanks for the amazing experience! I’m hoping to be fit enough next year to run it for time… but we will see what motherhood throws at me 😜
