WHY I RUN TO BREAK MY OWN PRs AND HELP OTHER PARENTS BREAK THEIRS AFTER GIVING BIRTH

Just six weeks after giving birth to her daughter, Delphine, Berry set out on a three-mile run. But her core wasn't strong enough to control her bladder, and her pelvic floor was unprepared for the impact. Nevertheless, she followed the vague advice of her OB-GYN and continued to moderately jog after those fateful first miles. "I made a bad situation worse," she says.

It was the lowest point in a life full of running highs. Since 2004, Berry has run multiple marathons and triathlons, even completing an Ironman one month before becoming pregnant in 2015.
