Great Article About Crossfitting While Pregnant

This is a great article about a girl who continued to CF while pregnant. Even though I no longer run and will gain more than the 21 lbs she did, I can still relate to how she felt about continuing to stay active. The habits I formed in the year pre-pregnancy have definitely made a huge impact on how I feel each day. I hope to continue to remain active the remaining 11 weeks!
