28 year old Olympian and five-time U.S. national champion Alysia Montano ran an 800m race at the Hornet Stadium in
Sacramento, California, yesterday and people are now questioning if it's safe.
Alysia received a
standing ovation after completing the race in 2 minutes, 32.13 seconds, 35 seconds slower than her personal best of 1:57.34,
which she smashed back in 2010 in a race in Monaco.
"I've been running throughout my pregnancy and I felt really, really good during the whole process.' Alysia said after the race...
Doctors gave her the OK to run but isn't this too rigorous for a woman so pregnant? See more photos after the cut...
wow!!! and she looks so good....
ReplyDeleteD baby will be a runner too, Usain Bolt d 2nd. Wondering what she wanna prove.
DeleteJenniPukka
What the fuck. What stupid OK from the Doctors. It's never ok for a woman to run that hard with a mature pregnancy. Once pregnancy is off the first trimester, a woman really need to be extra careful and conscious of what she does. This is a NO NO.
DeleteYou just know lazy pregnant women. You should stay fit during pregnancy to avoid big babies, stressful delivery, baby fat, e.t.c
DeleteWhich kind tin be dat? Abeg it's not safe for d baby o! Or guys wot do u fink???
ReplyDeleteExercise i believe is good for pregnant women but this is too rigorous for the baby.
ReplyDeleteHmmm if she's okay lets clap for her naa,guess she didn't win at the end,its all good.
ReplyDeleteExercise i believe is good for pregnant women but this is too rigorous for the baby.
ReplyDeleteIts usually safe 2 engage in sm form of xercise during gestation,bt @ 8 mnths I think its quite rigorous
ReplyDeleteDoctors gave her okay to run??! Who are these doctors And how long have they been in practice?
ReplyDeleteD doctors are mentally unstable.
DeleteWow! But what of the child in her womb, won't it have any effect on the baby.
ReplyDelete~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA LUMIA
I dont have anyting to say on dis cause I'm not a doctor. No 9ja gal can do dis tho. She better not harm herself all de same. I'm out. ***CATCH ME IF U CAN***
ReplyDeleteWho are u dat we shuld catch?
DeleteWow! That's really amazing for a woman 8 months pregnant, I am sure the baby will be a sport man, or rather a genius in athletics
ReplyDeleteYour comment will be visible after approval
Na u give am belle abi wey u know say na man dey dere.
DeleteWish her safe delivery... Can't/won't try it.
ReplyDeleteUm Linda, u no say dis na only 800m right? e no be say na marathon she dey run. If her doctors gave her the okay, I will assume it is safe since she has been doing this for so long, I doubt it will be a 'shock to the system'

Ok.....o mgbe iga amu. Nwa premarurely ka iga ezu ike nne!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, speechless...#observing...@blissful_jay
ReplyDeleteits risky oh...wat if she falls...nah too lie flat
ReplyDeleteExactly my thought too.what if she falls on her stomach?
DeleteIt's only in Nigeria you people make pregnant women seen handicap. If she was very athletic before the pregnancy then there's absolutely nothing wrong with her running during pregnancy.
ReplyDeleteYou have no full sense of what you are saying. It is never OK for a woman outside the first trimester to engage in nerves pulling exercises or what so ever. This act could cause her taints and overdue contractions after birth. Infact the baby could be deform as a result of this.
DeleteOMG!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteTHIS MEANS I CAN DO ANYTHING, IF I SET MY MIND TO IT.
Totally awesome

hmn strange tinz. if God be for u. i wish her safety.
ReplyDeleteSHORT STORY:
ReplyDeleteA young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealers showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.
As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his
graduation, his father called him into his private study, told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and how much he loved him. He handed him a beautifully wrapped gift box.
Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with his name embossed in gold. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said,"With all your money you give me a Bible?" He stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible behind.
Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old. He thought perhaps he should go to him.He had not seen him since that graduation day.
But before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to him. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.
When he arrived at his father's house, sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father's important documents
and saw the Bible, new,just as he had left it years ago.
With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. His father had carefully underlined a verse, Matt 7:11, "And if ye, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Heavenly Father which is in Heaven, give to those who ask Him?" As he read those words, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible.It had a tag with the dealers name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words...PAID IN FULL.
Just think about it, how many times have we missed God's blessings just because they are not packaged as we expected? Be thankful and praise His name no matter what comes your way. His ways are different from ours.
One Word..Amazing !!!
ReplyDeleteWow! Amazing she is trying,God will give u more strength.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it is safe, but you gotta give kudos, running with an 8 month pregnancy couldn't have being easy
ReplyDeleteWow! She really tried but think is risky.
ReplyDeleteOMG! It's not safe. Ha! I'm speechless
ReplyDeleteCoolDiva speaks!
I CANNOT EVEN RUN 100M RACE AS I AM LET ALONE 800M RACE...

ReplyDeleteHaba this isn't right. Just pray d baby is still ok
ReplyDeleteThis is risky ooo...wat if she had fallen down? Pls dz is dangerous oooo..
ReplyDeletePls visit my shoe blog
www.glowysofiscated.blogspot.com
Hmmm! I fear ooo
ReplyDeletePls don't compare yourself with her
ReplyDeletemany of these people do hide the baby spiritually inn the coven.they carry empty stomach until the day of their delivery when they will now carry the real baby.b4 you start abusing me ask elders around you.
many witches had confessed to this in the past

***CURRENTLY IN JUPITER***
She dey strong oo...
ReplyDeleteC.E.O
This is very risky
ReplyDelete#SkALER#
Make d baby no fall out oo!
ReplyDeleteSurprised... Well since her doctor certified her to be OK for the race..that fine..
ReplyDeleteCheck my blog Chris Brown Show off his Girlfriend's Butt on Instagram flaunting her Stretch Marks(Photos)
And she's feeling excited? E go soon over her.. She should keep it up..
ReplyDeleteTHERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT FOR AN OLYMPIAN. SHE IS IN SHAPE AND VERY FIT. PREGNANCY, LIKE MENSURATION, IS NOT A SICKNESS OR DISABILITY. IF HER SPORTS DOCS CERTIFIED HER, THEN SHE'S GOOD TO GO. THIS IS THE RESULT OF YEARS OF ENDLESS PRACTICE AND GYM-ING. WHY DO U THINK THE UNITED STATES PACK ALL GOLD MEDALS WHENEVA THERE IS OLYMPIC GAMES? U DUNT GET THAT BY SITTING ON UR BUTT FOR 4YEARS, NAAH. IT'S HARDWORK ALL THE WAY. DATS WHY U SEE SOME OF THEIR MUSICIANS DANCING WHILE PREGNANT, COS THEY KEEP FIT, FOR THEIR SHAPE AND CAREER! NOT WE NIGERIANS WHO COME SLEEPY TO OLYMPIC GAMES. AM SO SURE THIS LADY WILL STILL WIN A MEDAL IF SHE GOES IN THIS STATE TO A COMPETITION. 800M IN 3MINS? NOT BEANS!! TRY AM!
ReplyDeleteAnd my wife has been refusing to do any work bcos of ordinary 3 months pregnancy...God don catch am...she must pound yam tonight!!!
ReplyDeleteWell she tried but nt sure dats gud for the baby
ReplyDelete@anonymus: so am guessing you are from one of the witches family that confessed to this since u seem to know much about hiding babies in the coven. "Omo iya aje"
ReplyDeletehaba Aunty linda 800m is not marathan,you can lie ohhh
ReplyDeletetoo bad...i see it as bad judgment
ReplyDeleteI wonder what she was trying to prove by engaging on dis suicide mission. What if she had fallen?
ReplyDeleteIF THAT IS WHAT SHE HAS BEEN DOING BEFORE AND AFTER GETTING PREGNANT,THE BABY AND HER BODY ARE ALREADY USED TO IT.
ReplyDeleteThis is RUBBISH! What is she trying to prove…Please madam go and park well, you look STUPID to me. Pregnant women need exercise but NOT this type.
ReplyDeleteI wished my wife was this strong in Pregnancy. My sex life wound not have suffered.
ReplyDeleteHmmm. Looks kinda scary but am sure she must have been cleared by the med. team for her to have engaged in such adventure. I hope she was first to breast the tape. Lolz.
ReplyDeleteIt good's good for her, what of the baby. Just b kiaful madam runner
ReplyDeleteIf her doctors said its okay what's our own. They must have checked vitals. The baby is used to it cos she said she ran throughout Hey pregnancy. Let's face our own here abeg
ReplyDeleteDoctors usually advice against rigorous exercise in the 3rd trimester. But if you have been an active person all your life prior to preggy, you can continue that way even in preggy. No shaking.
ReplyDeleteShe is as fit as fiddle, "Ride On"with training from 1-8 months, her body and baby is use to it.
ReplyDeleteKaffy our own award winning dancer, danced rigorously at one project fame season..... I was @ home shouting and watching and enjoying her entertaining steps.
I then tried dancing at 7 months pregnancy, on our Graduation Thanksgiving service.
Chineekkkeeee
I regreted ever trying that my waist hear am for 2 weeks..
Enough massage to bring back my waist...lol
She's really gud... wow!!! First time in history.
ReplyDeleteNot sure why people are taking panadol for another person headache; she looks fine...
ReplyDeleteJeeez! Dis is almst unbilivabl. Mehn, These ppl like to dare
ReplyDeleteAnd linda cannot run 50m
ReplyDeleteDr Said okay shey, what if she fell, accident do happen to those on the track even without pregnancy, if am the father is a NO NO
ReplyDeleteHmmmm! I still think it was a big risk...She is 8months pregnant for Christ sakes.Well am glad she's okay
ReplyDeleteBetter than women that use pregnancy as an excuse to get fat.
ReplyDeleteI only have two words : placenta abruptio! She will equally make news if that happened and we will all be commenting about her foolishness and how doctors advised her wrongly !
ReplyDeleteShe dey mad!!!!
ReplyDeletethis is great job
ReplyDeletekudos to this lady
BORN TO SHINE!!!
NONSENSE
ReplyDeleteWith this vigorous exercise, she gonna pop out any minute from now
ReplyDelete, that I'm sure.
