What Did YOU Do This Weekend? Woman Gives Birth Hours After Completing The Chicago Marathon!!!

So you were complaining about doing the lawn on Saturday, weren’t you? Well, this woman just punked you out. A pregnant suburban Chicago woman felt contractions a few minutes after finishing the Chicago Marathon and gave birth hours later to a baby girl. Amber Miller was nearly 39 weeks pregnant when she started the 26.2-mile race on Sunday morning. The DuPage County woman told The Daily Herald in a telephone interview from her hospital bed that her doctor allowed her to run half the race and walk half the race. Miller says she felt contractions after finishing at 6 hours and 25 minutes. When the contractions became regular she stopped to get a sandwich and then went to the hospital. Her daughter, June, was born at 10:29 p.m. weighing 7 pounds, 13 ounces. Miller says she’s happy but calls Sunday “the longest day of my life.” Geez. That woman is a soldier for real! Source
