Happy Women’s Day!

This image of British ultrarunner Sophie Power breastfeeding her 3-month-old son, Cormac, was taken at a rest stop 16 hours into the 106-mile trail race. ❤

“Oh my god, I was in agony," she told of this moment. "Cormac usually feeds every three hours, and it took me 16 to get to Courmayeur where he could first meet me, so I was hand expressing everywhere I could en route. I was so relieved he was hungry!”

Sophie took the race slow and steady and made subtle changes to the way she ran because she was breastfeeding.

"In a typical race I would get in and out of the aid stations as quickly as possible, but here I had to focus on keeping down enough food for me and for Cormac, and resting,” she said.

She completed the intense race through France, Italy and Switzerland in 43 hours and 33 minutes. 💪💪💪
