spk_0 Hello!
spk_0 We are back!
spk_0 We are getting, we are in a weird mood so...
spk_0 Oh well, um, how you guys welcome to the Miles of Mom's podcast.
spk_0 This show is for every mother runner.
spk_0 And our goal is to make you feel seen, supported, and like you're just going for a run with your friends.
spk_0 So, I'm Olivia.
spk_0 I'm Shana.
spk_0 And, um, we just want to say thank you.
spk_0 Sorry, we just tried to record this and we're re-saying it, which is always weird.
spk_0 If you guys are like voice noters or anything and you've ever actually re-saved what you were saying,
spk_0 it was always funny to have to re-save it.
spk_0 But, we are so grateful to you guys for one being patient and we have received so much love
spk_0 after we posted that we were restructuring.
spk_0 And, um, yeah, we want to let you know that as far as like building community,
spk_0 being here for mother runners, sharing stories, ours, and other people's like,
spk_0 that is still the goal and you'll still be getting the same, um, just genuine version of ourselves with that.
spk_0 So, just thank you so much.
spk_0 And then also, I just wanted to say, um, as far as, um, we had posted about the Miles of Mom's
spk_0 takeout run in Chicago for any mamas who are running Chicago, we're still planning on it.
spk_0 Okay, I'm going to be there. I was just saying, don't leave me hanging.
spk_0 And, um, yeah, we'll be there.
spk_0 And I, I can assure you that there is going to be no pace that's like super fast.
spk_0 Um, if there's a chair nearby, you will probably see me in it.
spk_0 There's a chair hot chocolate. There's a solid chance I won't even be wearing running shoes.
spk_0 But we do have a little bit of a plan to go on like a two to three mile loop.
spk_0 But it's really up to you. There's just no pressure.
spk_0 I'm not huge into running a lot or the day before race.
spk_0 Like I love to not do that. So yeah.
spk_0 Yes, it does at the club. It's going down.
spk_0 At the corner, it's going down.
spk_0 I'm just kidding.
spk_0 I think you're not.
spk_0 Just don't ask me to ever sing again because it'll hurt yours.
spk_0 But where's the location and what time for listeners?
spk_0 The location is, um, it's called the McCormick Place.
spk_0 We have the address posted. It, um, it's on like MLK Boulevard or something.
spk_0 It's, um, it's a hotel. I think it's a hiya. And then, um, we're planning at 9 a.m.
spk_0 So yeah, we'll be sure it will repost and everything so that, um, you just have someone to,
spk_0 because Chicago will be filled with a gazillion people.
spk_0 And if you are traveling solo or even just like with your spouse or something,
spk_0 it's really fun to have someone to meet up with.
spk_0 And we are there for you.
spk_0 So exciting. I'm going to have FOMO, but I'm so excited for everybody.
spk_0 Get you on FaceTime.
spk_0 Yeah, there we go.
spk_0 Yeah, it might be a little chaotic that day.
spk_0 Yeah, probably.
spk_0 It'll be you getting breakfast for any in the morning.
spk_0 I don't get a sit down.
spk_0 Yeah, they'll get real content for what's going on over here.
spk_0 We thought she had her shit together. She doesn't.
spk_0 Right.
spk_0 Yeah, right.
spk_0 Oh my gosh.
spk_0 Well, we do have a mother runner shot out.
spk_0 We're actually going to call it the everyday hero because I feel like we just felt like mothers aren't like recognized what they do.
spk_0 Whether you are a full time working mom, whether you're single mom, whether you're a mom that stays home full time or YouTube both.
spk_0 Um, we just want you guys to be called what you are, the heroes of this world.
spk_0 So, um, this was given by Hannah and she says, hello, so never finish the message clearly.
spk_0 Oh, sure.
spk_0 Okay, so she goes on and sorry, I should have like proofread this.
spk_0 She said, Ryan has always supported my running and recently he himself signed up for his first full marathon.
spk_0 Super proud of him. I am only willing to do the half because then I go, I can go have brunch and a spritz as a reward.
spk_0 That's really smart. I really like her train of thought.
spk_0 Um, and the person who recommended your podcast was also a man, my friend and sort of coach, Jean Paul.
spk_0 That's really cool. We recommend that our listening to our podcast.
spk_0 Um, let's see.
spk_0 I have a 10k coming up in October and aiming for my first sub 50, but mainly going to enjoy the music and the sights, sending hugs and things again, really enjoy listening to you guys.
spk_0 Well, good like Hannah and your 10k, we hope you get your sub 50 minutes.
spk_0 Um, you better reach out to us too so we can shout you out when you do.
spk_0 Um, but that's so rad. I love it. I love that there's a man that introduced our podcast to another boss.
spk_0 And that we connected with her. So that's super cool. I've actually never pictured a man like sitting down on the stage for a five.
spk_0 But I mean, it's great insight. If you want to get into the coin, you know, if you want to know what goes on through your wife's brain, just go listen to our podcast.
spk_0 We can tell you exactly.
spk_0 Oh, man, well, how are you feeling?
spk_0 Oh, man, well, um, all right. Um, I did. I know.
spk_0 I know. Right. I'm like, where do I start the whole walk in six weeks of being pregnant?
spk_0 Anybody is new here. And especially because we are switching things up and we're on a new channel and whatnot.
spk_0 Um, she had his pregnant with her seventh. And so it's super exciting. And yes, she says a whopping six weeks, but it is.
spk_0 I mean, still use anybody who's a mom knows that sometimes you can feel it right off the bat. So yes.
spk_0 Okay, go ahead. You're feeling all right.
spk_0 Everybody use a friend that justifies their friend.
spk_0 Literally, I could say anything and Olivia will help my back.
spk_0 I'm like, I'm going to be right there. Yes, you're right. No, it's okay.
spk_0 She's so funny. I love it so much. She'll be like, Oh, I was talking about this.
spk_0 And I don't even know if that was like on topic. And I'm like, well, then that's on them that they didn't see.
spk_0 Every time I got you.
spk_0 It's the best. Um, but yeah, no, I've been feeling pretty good.
spk_0 I had some like nausea episodes here and there. Um, but usually I can meet like I can keep it under wraps.
spk_0 Like doesn't bother me too bad.
spk_0 And last night I got to do like my first like speed workout, like below the six minute range.
spk_0 Or is I feel like it's been a minute since I've done that.
spk_0 And I actually felt really good other than just don't look at my dogs in between them.
spk_0 Because it just for me, it was a little different faces. But for overall, like I felt pretty good.
spk_0 I don't feel other than like the need to have to pee all the time.
spk_0 I like totally forgot that that's a thing when you're pregnant.
spk_0 Like I just like I remember like in the past having to stop a lot to have to go pee.
spk_0 Because you just like when you have to go pee, you have to go pee like right now.
spk_0 And like last night I was doing this workout and I was like, Oh my gosh, I have to pee so bad.
spk_0 But I'm like, hold it. You don't want that a lot of time.
spk_0 And it's just so funny. Like it's something that's so little and like minute school, but I feel it.
spk_0 Like it's those little things in the first trimester that you forget about that really does like put a toll on your body in different ways.
spk_0 So anyways, for those that are in their second, third trimester, we're peeing is probably so much more of an issue.
spk_0 I feel you.
spk_0 Oh my gosh.
spk_0 No, it's so funny because it's true. Like it's true with the first trimester.
spk_0 And I was saying like we were talking to our friend too because she's in her first trimester as well.
spk_0 And it's just like you just don't know what you're going to get that day.
spk_0 Like some days are super good. Some days like you can run like 20 miles.
spk_0 And then there's another day where like three miles was the biggest battle you've ever fought.
spk_0 And it's just so funny.
spk_0 Like those little things like having to pee all the time. Like why there's nothing pushing on your bladder.
spk_0 I know.
spk_0 But every reason like you feel like you have to pee all the time.
spk_0 And it's just those little things you know.
spk_0 And yeah, I always was like, am I convincing myself of this? Am I just like wanting to, you know, with Charlotte?
spk_0 I found out so early like the second I was like, oh, I could have missed my period today.
spk_0 I think I found out, you know.
spk_0 That's so crazy.
spk_0 Well, because with Grace and I didn't and so.
spk_0 I know. That's what's so crazy.
spk_0 What is and it's funny because I'm like, so was it in my head some of it?
spk_0 Because I was like convinced that I needed like fried pickles all the time and stuff.
spk_0 But I it's like you do crave these things.
spk_0 But it's also like just part of it is leaning into that stuff.
spk_0 Like you should be able to if you're tired, lean into it.
spk_0 If you are feeling energized, lean into it.
spk_0 You know, it's so true.
spk_0 I think that's like the hardest part for me is like taking a step back.
spk_0 Like like, because you can't see like a physical bump yet in the first trimester.
spk_0 So you're like, is this really a baby in there?
spk_0 I don't know.
spk_0 My booze. Oh my gosh, you guys. That's another one.
spk_0 My boobs hurt.
spk_0 My gosh.
spk_0 So bad.
spk_0 Like every day I feel like I'm like breastfeeding for the first time.
spk_0 Like that soreness.
spk_0 And I'm like, I forgot that this was the thing.
spk_0 But yeah, it's it's just crazy.
spk_0 But yeah, it's like it because I don't have a bump yet.
spk_0 Like once I surf seeing a bomb, I'm like, yeah, I'm pregnant.
spk_0 I haven't seen this extra plate of carbs again.
spk_0 Yes.
spk_0 I was just telling Shanna yesterday I was like, oh, I wish that you had a bump already.
spk_0 No.
spk_0 Yeah, because we were even at the park and I was like, oh yeah, she's pregnant.
spk_0 And then the people we were there were like, oh.
spk_0 How far are you?
spk_0 Oh, four weeks.
spk_0 She just took the test.
spk_0 12 hours ago.
spk_0 Pretty much.
spk_0 Pretty much.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 It's so it's so fun.
spk_0 It's so exciting, like just all that it's nice though.
spk_0 Because then you get to enjoy every single step of it, you know?
spk_0 And yeah, like of course, having a bump and everything, it feels like you can justify
spk_0 that those things a little bit more.
spk_0 But it doesn't take away from like truly like the hormone shifts that are happening
spk_0 in the hormone dumps and like the boobs sort of is okay, I will never forget.
spk_0 Okay, so I did not know I was pregnant at this point.
spk_0 Like I should have known.
spk_0 I obviously.
spk_0 I should have.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Probably like 18 weeks pregnant.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 How long when you found out that you were pregnant?
spk_0 How far away?
spk_0 Grace and I was 21 weeks and three days.
spk_0 So it was almost 22 weeks.
spk_0 It is crazy.
spk_0 Like they were the same day that I found out about him.
spk_0 And they were like, we, if it wasn't 8 p.m. right now, we would do your anatomy scan.
spk_0 And I was like, I'll do it.
spk_0 I was like, I got to let the dead know.
spk_0 Like, there's a half cooked baby in here.
spk_0 A full half cooked.
spk_0 Like my friend thought I was pranking her.
spk_0 But I remember this when I was in Vancouver with my brother.
spk_0 And there was all these open houses.
spk_0 And we were like, let's go look at like there's beautiful homes.
spk_0 It was up in Canada.
spk_0 Vancouver, Canada.
spk_0 And there's amazing homes up there.
spk_0 And I remember I got really cold, but also my boobs were just hurting so much.
spk_0 And I was like, how do I explain to my brother that I can't stand up right now because my boobs hurt so much?
spk_0 But I don't know why.
spk_0 I thought it was just because I was really cold.
spk_0 So he was like, we'll take my jacket.
spk_0 And like looking back at the temperature that day, it was probably 60 degrees.
spk_0 Like it was not actually cold at all.
spk_0 But I had no idea what was happening, obviously, in my body.
spk_0 But I just remember sitting in the car and they went inside and looked at the beautiful home.
spk_0 And we would just be like, oh, it hurts so much.
spk_0 And I just think about how stupid that was.
spk_0 I'm just like so mindful of that like 21 weeks.
spk_0 Like I remember listening to like those shows like on my not calling you a TV.
spk_0 But like the TV shows were like 16 and pregnant.
spk_0 And they're like, I had no idea.
spk_0 I was pregnant.
spk_0 I was like, how does anybody at that point?
spk_0 Like when I miss a period, I'm like, my pregnant.
spk_0 Like my period is so like on the dark.
spk_0 It was even with you.
spk_0 Like you were like, I'm two days into my period.
spk_0 You just shut it down.
spk_0 I was like, I was like, okay, I just started mine today.
spk_0 So in two days, we got to make sure that you check.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 It's so funny.
spk_0 Like I don't know because the thing is that people still when they have like a full term baby,
spk_0 I'm like, how did you not know?
spk_0 Like I at least eventually figured it out.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 But you were weeks like you could hide up like the baby could hide pretty good on some people.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 And honestly, he did.
spk_0 Like I did not have I felt like once I found out about him, I was like, oh, I can breathe.
spk_0 And I was just like, I can have a little pooch.
spk_0 But I like I had gained a little bit of weight, but I was also trying.
spk_0 I was like, I I had booked a trip to Hawaii.
spk_0 And I was like, oh, I am going to I want to have like a cool six pack.
spk_0 And I could not get like nothing was moving.
spk_0 And I was like, and I couldn't run.
spk_0 I was like, why can't I run very well?
spk_0 And I had like reupped my Peloton subscription.
spk_0 I was like, maybe it's because I'm not using that or whatever.
spk_0 It was so funny.
spk_0 I could not figure it out.
spk_0 And I was like, it's just this pooch.
spk_0 And I kept seeing it to anybody who would listen.
spk_0 It's just right here.
spk_0 And then one day I would I remember being like, is that my uterus?
spk_0 And I'm thinking about it now.
spk_0 It was that was probably like two days before I found out.
spk_0 And then I was like, could I be pregnant?
spk_0 Oh my gosh.
spk_0 I kept joking about it to also anybody that would listen to me like, I'm pregnant.
spk_0 I just ate a whole box of off darts. I'm pregnant.
spk_0 And then it turned out I was really pregnant.
spk_0 So telling those same people like, I wasn't kidding guys.
spk_0 So when you went into the the doctor is like, what made you originally go into the doctors to discover that you were pregnant?
spk_0 I didn't.
spk_0 I was like in the morning.
spk_0 Well, I told you I had that coyote following me.
spk_0 And I was like, something is happening because my dad had passed like a week and a half before that.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 And I was like, something is telling me is this his spirit?
spk_0 Is it he like coyote?
spk_0 No.
spk_0 I was like on Native American land in Vegas.
spk_0 You know, like, oh my gosh.
spk_0 It's an omen.
spk_0 And so anyway, I had a feeling that something was happening.
spk_0 But then I went in to go and I had to do my ACLS certification, which is a Vance cardiac support.
spk_0 And so I could not focus.
spk_0 And I was like, I'm, I've been really constipated.
spk_0 I should go by a laxative.
spk_0 And so I was like doing CPR on this mannequin.
spk_0 And I was like, oh my god, I'm going to throw up on this mannequin.
spk_0 And so I went to the, I ended up going to the bathroom and throwing up.
spk_0 And we had a lunch break.
spk_0 I went and I bought a laxative.
spk_0 And then I also bought a pregnancy test.
spk_0 And the girl at the counter was like, girl, I have been there.
spk_0 And I was like, which one was it for you?
spk_0 And she was like, well, my laxative is five years old now.
spk_0 I was like, or like six years old.
spk_0 And I was like, oh, so anyway.
spk_0 And then yeah, I just went pee.
spk_0 And I like snuck it in my uniform up my sleeve.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 The thing lit.
spk_0 I took it out of the wrapper.
spk_0 And it was like, don't bother peeing on this.
spk_0 It was lit up like a Christmas tree.
spk_0 It was like, you're picnic.
spk_0 Walk yourself over to labor and delivery.
spk_0 But it was late.
spk_0 So I didn't know what to do.
spk_0 But luckily, there was a woman's health care center open until like 8 p.m.
spk_0 And so I needed my cert.
spk_0 I was like, I'll finish my certification.
spk_0 And then I'll go, I was like freaking out.
spk_0 I was like, I'm really pregnant.
spk_0 This is crazy.
spk_0 Like to just, because I was not, I think I was not planning for that at all.
spk_0 So yeah, I went.
spk_0 And then they were like, oh, you already took the P test.
spk_0 You don't even need to be here.
spk_0 And I was like, no, I'm like really confused.
spk_0 I'm like, you need to educate me.
spk_0 And so they were like, well, our blood work thing that are like
spk_0 flabotumous, she's gone.
spk_0 So we could give you an ultrasound.
spk_0 But if you're only like eight weeks, not much is going to show up on there.
spk_0 I was like, give me the ultrasound.
spk_0 I'm fine with that.
spk_0 So when they took the back room and they did the ultrasound,
spk_0 she didn't know I didn't know.
spk_0 And so she was like, oh my gosh, her baby boy is so cute.
spk_0 And I was like, what?
spk_0 I was so sorry.
spk_0 So I stood up and I'm like, I was like, no, you don't have to.
spk_0 Yeah, I'm very confused.
spk_0 I was like, she was like, no, you're 21 weeks pregnant.
spk_0 I was like, how long are people pregnant for it?
spk_0 Like, of course, no, but I'm like very confused.
spk_0 No, yeah, you're probably in shock.
spk_0 I'm shocked.
spk_0 And so I had a zip up on.
spk_0 And so the girl was like, oh yeah,
spk_0 you don't even look pregnant.
spk_0 That must have been crazy.
spk_0 She was like, you really didn't know.
spk_0 And I was like, no, I really didn't know.
spk_0 And so then the, the, like a midwife came in or something and came and talked to me and stuff.
spk_0 And she was like, so do you know what to do?
spk_0 And I was like, I'm so confused right now.
spk_0 I was like, is he okay?
spk_0 I went zip lining like two weeks ago.
spk_0 I was like, that's, I was like, it's a boy.
spk_0 And so I was like, do you have any like paper work about this?
spk_0 And it goes, I got, I got to tell him about it.
spk_0 Yeah, how do I tell my mom?
spk_0 Like, that's weird.
spk_0 That one's a weird one.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Like super pregnant right now.
spk_0 Halfway done.
spk_0 I have one.
spk_0
spk_0 19 weeks.
spk_0 19 weeks.
spk_0 Oh, like, and you're the first with the grand baby.
spk_0 Oh, yeah.
spk_0 So that's crazy.
spk_0 It's so funny to picture like them.
spk_0 Like, as a healthcare worker that like just how surprised I was.
spk_0 And I was crying a lot and hearing his heartbeat.
spk_0 And you're like very, you're flooded with emotions.
spk_0 And so I, I had sent a picture to my friend and of like the ultrasound
spk_0 and the pregnancy test.
spk_0 And she's like, oh, that's not funny.
spk_0 That's like not funny at all in Matt is going to be really upset with you.
spk_0 It's like, she, because that's like not a funny prank, right?
spk_0 Like don't sell them.
spk_0 Not close to April fools.
spk_0 Nothing.
spk_0 I was like, it's kind of funny.
spk_0 But anyway, I, yeah.
spk_0 That's response gets me every time.
spk_0 And I don't know if I love that I shared it.
spk_0 Because is it mine?
spk_0 I was just going to say that.
spk_0 Is it a Garcia?
spk_0 I was like, I'm not, I'm not a hoe.
spk_0 I'm just a hoe that didn't know.
spk_0 No, I like, I was like, I am a good girl.
spk_0 I just, I didn't know I was pregnant.
spk_0 I'm just dumb.
spk_0 No.
spk_0 So it was just a relief.
spk_0 I didn't know.
spk_0 Oh, that didn't know.
spk_0 I, yeah, it was like he was in shock and everything.
spk_0 But it was really funny.
spk_0 And then like, I mean, it's not that it was pretty funny.
spk_0 We obviously both had, we have jobs.
spk_0 We have a house.
spk_0 It was not like we were, like we weren't like freaking out about like, oh my gosh, how are we going to do this?
spk_0 Let's make it known.
spk_0 Like you, you were in your, how old were you?
spk_0 Like 24?
spk_0 I was 25.
spk_0 I was 25.
spk_0 I think when I found out.
spk_0 And Matt was like in his 30s.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 So it's like, it wasn't like, yeah, it wasn't like you guys were like 17 and 18.
spk_0 Like you guys were like, establish in your career.
spk_0 Like you had lived this full life.
spk_0 Like honestly, you were separate for a while.
spk_0 And it's like, so it's so different.
spk_0 But I just like, it's so funny.
spk_0 Because if you guys were to see her boy, like he is spitting images of his dad.
spk_0 Like so much of him is his dad.
spk_0 Like it's like, there's no denial.
spk_0 Like you don't even need a bunch of you.
spk_0 You can look at the kid and you're like, he's definitely a mix of you.
spk_0 Oh, yeah.
spk_0 He's so cute.
spk_0 He's so funny.
spk_0 And I, I, I, I mean, of course, I was like,
spk_0 I wasn't like, we weren't like, oh, we kind of knew each other and hooking up.
spk_0 And that was how I was like, I'm going to have to break this to this guy.
spk_0 And he's going to have to support me.
spk_0 We were like in a relationship.
spk_0 It was just like, I think, I think when you're 39 years old, you're like, I don't know if you're like thinking about having kids.
spk_0 We weren't talking about it a lot.
spk_0 I was 25.
spk_0 I really wanted to wait and to have kids until I was like in my 30s.
spk_0 I thought I was going to be go be a nurse first and things like that.
spk_0 So there was a lot of different moving parts of this.
spk_0 And I was like, I'm 25.
spk_0 I have like, I've got to go to Italy and all these places before I have kids.
spk_0 And then, you know, obviously, like, best thing to have ever happened, like in the whole world.
spk_0 And, you know, it was so fun.
spk_0 And like, it was nice because we could just kind of enjoy the pregnancy.
spk_0 And we were like, I guess he's good.
spk_0 Like, I was like, I mean, it was such a, I mean, it was just such a roller coaster.
spk_0 Because like two days later, we were going in for the anatomy scan.
spk_0 And of course, like all of those symptoms, I can, I'm like, oh my gosh.
spk_0 Well, you couldn't go to the open house because you were pregnant.
spk_0 You're so sorry.
spk_0 And, you know, like just so many things like that where it's like, oh, all of my feet wouldn't fit into my Berkinstags.
spk_0 Because they were slowly because you were pregnant.
spk_0 Oh, crazy.
spk_0 So much panda express.
spk_0 Although I will say that coyote, that coyote, I still think was an omen of some sort.
spk_0 So I mean, the fact that it got you to like start thinking about something like crazy.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 So crazy.
spk_0 I always look back.
spk_0 It was like, it was November 19th.
spk_0 And every year that coyote pops up as a picture because I was taking pictures of it.
spk_0 Because I was like, why are you following us?
spk_0 This is so weird.
spk_0 And I wasn't like threatened by him or anything or it.
spk_0 And yeah, just so funny.
spk_0 So what's that story behind the coyote that we've seen now twice on that trail?
spk_0 I know.
spk_0 Well, okay, that's so funny.
spk_0 Because I was like, me, the first thing we saw it were you pregnant.
spk_0 I was like, I have to go back and I was just thinking about this the other day.
spk_0 And because I was like, oh my gosh, that coyote is really good against snow.
spk_0 And I always, it's the one thing.
spk_0 It's why like, when people are like, oh, I go out and I hunt coyotes.
spk_0 I'm like, I'm pretty sure they're like connected to our universe in some spiritual way.
spk_0 I'm always going to, I don't know what that one that was like crossing over the path.
spk_0 I think that was just there to scare us.
spk_0 I know that was pretty freaky.
spk_0 It was like dark outside you guys were on this run.
spk_0 And this guy, you already was like, just standing there.
spk_0 I don't think we would have done anything to us, but like, you know, they, they, they, they go and pack.
spk_0 So I'm like, there's one.
spk_0 Where's the other five?
spk_0 Like, I don't want them thinking that we're easy darkest.
spk_0 Exactly.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 And it's like, no.
spk_0 Get, get.
spk_0 I'm saddened like a crazy person probably to like everybody that was on that trail.
spk_0 Like, there's a bunch of houses that follow the trail and me, you know, let me always just laugh because we're, we're this loud when we ride at five a.m.
spk_0 in the morning.
spk_0 And so people just like, oh, most poor people, they hear us comment.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Exactly.
spk_0 Oh my gosh.
spk_0 So I was like, I, I was just thinking about that the other day because when I was running on, on the trail and I was like, oh, that coyote.
spk_0 And I was like, I don't know what that other one was, but the one in the river could have been.
spk_0 And, well, because she had no one always told me.
spk_0 I'm really sensitive to pregnancy, which is like, funny statement in a way like in so many ways.
spk_0 Like, because you could take it in any way.
spk_0 Like, is it the symptoms?
spk_0 Is it susceptible to getting pregnant, you know?
spk_0 Things like that.
spk_0 And so it was just so funny when you did tell me that you were pregnant.
spk_0 I was like, wow, she is.
spk_0 It's a pregnancy.
spk_0 And I was like, does that mean I'm not in a way?
spk_0 Because like, I, but I didn't know with Grayson for someone.
spk_0 I will say with Charlotte, I did.
spk_0 I mean, we were trying obviously, but, um, you know, symptoms wise, it's, I think you're just so much more aware of so many things.
spk_0 Plus when you're running at the level that you're running.
spk_0 I think that's why it's.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Like, you're very in tune with your body.
spk_0 And like, that's why talking about like your speed workout last night.
spk_0 Like, the fact that you even felt good enough also guys, I want to just say this.
spk_0 She went out at like, like late, like after dinner and was like, I'm going to go do a speed workout.
spk_0 And I am a dedicated runner, but I am not.
spk_0 She would have done it.
spk_0 I've seen Olivia do so crazy.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 I mean, it's sometimes this way gets me out the door.
spk_0 Like, I literally can't tell you guys.
spk_0 So Olivia does this thing when we're on workouts or runs or whatever together.
spk_0 She's like, if I could just talk myself through this nine miles, anyway, I can get through nine miles.
spk_0 And I was like, girl, anyway, I can get through three minutes.
spk_0 Nine miles.
spk_0 Like, that's like a whole race.
spk_0 I laugh because last night, I can't tell you like how many times we're like the outer breath feeling.
spk_0 Because those, those like fart like intervals, they're, they're meant to stimulate.
spk_0 Like, you just get, you catch your breath enough to like be able to go hard again for two more minutes at the same effort.
spk_0 Like, as if you didn't stop, but the stopping almost makes it harder.
spk_0 And so because you're like slowing down and then you have to bring back up speed.
spk_0 So it's like the lactate is kind of like building up.
spk_0 And then you don't get enough rest to like alleviate it.
spk_0 And it's just to treat your body like teach your body how to like push that lactate through more efficiently.
spk_0 Those workouts always get me every time.
spk_0 Like, he says, jog it.
spk_0 I take it literal.
spk_0 I'm like, Shaq, like just shuffle your legs and nothing.
spk_0 It looks like you're putting an effort in.
spk_0 But anyways, yeah.
spk_0 So I had her in my mind all last night.
spk_0 I'm like my fourth and fifth rep, where I was like, ah, you're pregnant.
spk_0 You don't have to do all five reps.
spk_0 And then I was like, no, but Olivia was right next to you.
spk_0 She would tell me anybody can get her two more reps.
spk_0 I would.
spk_0 I was like, I have the mindset switch of like, oh, you only have this much left.
spk_0 No matter what the distance is, like I will do.
spk_0 If I have a 20 mile, I've already done a whole mile.
spk_0 I'm like, oh my god, you're so close to me.
spk_0 I'm 19 miles left.
spk_0 Like that's crazy.
spk_0 And like the other day, I had that like a broken up workout of nine miles.
spk_0 And then three hours later, I did another nine.
spk_0 And it's hard to take rest in between that because sometimes you're like, oh, I just want to get it all done.
spk_0 But I was like, how am I going to get through nine miles?
spk_0 And then I was like, honestly, if you use your first three as a warm up.
spk_0 And then you only have six miles left.
spk_0 And then six miles is nothing.
spk_0 But then also like by the time you're at the six mile mark, you only have three miles left.
spk_0 Or just technically a cool down.
spk_0 Anything.
spk_0 I was like, this is insane.
spk_0 But it works sort of.
spk_0 I mean, it does work for you.
spk_0 That's so crazy.
spk_0 And I'm like, she's meant to be an endurance runner.
spk_0 I made this just by it is like anything.
spk_0 I'm like, break it up in half mile increments.
spk_0 And Olivia is like, I give her five mile.
spk_0 So I'm like, which is not funny.
spk_0 If you put me on a track, I'm like, around it twice.
spk_0 That's he was crazy.
spk_0 Like, I'm like, once it's all, every time I see a track, I'm like, it's so much bigger than I remember it.
spk_0 400 meters.
spk_0 I think so much bigger than it does.
spk_0 Every time.
spk_0 No, it's so true.
spk_0 I think around like looping.
spk_0 I don't know why it just looks like.
spk_0 Like, that's only a quarter of a mile.
spk_0 Like how?
spk_0 Yeah, because I feel like when you're like typing in the workouts, you're like, oh, actually,
spk_0 this seems really manageable.
spk_0 And then when you go and look at it, because if I'm running a quarter of a mile on a, like a flat road,
spk_0 I'm like, well, that was a whole quarter of a mile, you know, like, wow, I'm, you know, it just seems so,
spk_0 like, and so to do like an 800, I'm like, two times, I'm tired after one time.
spk_0 I know.
spk_0 What?
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 So for me, like, taking intensity down and just going longer, much better.
spk_0 But yeah, we'll see.
spk_0 I mean, although I did like 70 minutes on the treadmill today.
spk_0 I'm like, I cannot do more than that.
spk_0 I know how it's so going into that.
spk_0 Like how are you feeling with taper?
spk_0 You have your race next week and next Sunday, which is crazy.
spk_0 I can't believe you guys are already there.
spk_0 So how are you feeling?
spk_0 Like this is your final, like, week's leading up into the race.
spk_0 Yes.
spk_0 I feel super, oh, hold on.
spk_0 I have a little, what's up here?
spk_0 You have to turn this down if you're going to sit with me.
spk_0 Okay.
spk_0 Do you want to say hi?
spk_0 Do you want to say hi?
spk_0 Hi, Tyler.
spk_0 Oh, should we do your hair in a second?
spk_0 So it's crazy thinking that the race is so close.
spk_0 I don't, I don't enjoy the taper.
spk_0 I don't look forward to it.
spk_0 I like my routine.
spk_0 I like high mileage.
spk_0 I like all of it.
spk_0 Okay, but we have to keep it super low.
spk_0 Remember, unless you want, do you want to sit up there with the dogs?
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Okay.
spk_0 I'll throw it.
spk_0 Okay.
spk_0 Hold on.
spk_0 I don't hit the dog in the head.
spk_0 Sorry.
spk_0 To get her dressed.
spk_0 It's like a, it's going to be someone today on the trail was like,
spk_0 I or on our sidewalk was like, oh, she should have worn shoes.
spk_0 And I was like, she is wearing clothes.
spk_0 And she's fed.
spk_0 I am winning right now.
spk_0 You are.
spk_0 I have to battle shoes and hair later.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 I do everything in increments.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 But I like the routine of like, I could go on marathon training for a long time.
spk_0 I like the routine and I like the Tuesday workout the Friday.
spk_0 I like the long run on Saturday.
spk_0 And so I will say this time around, I'm very much looking forward to the taper
spk_0 just because I've had this cold.
spk_0 And I need to know that if I recover, if I let my body physically recover,
spk_0 that this cold will go away and that everything will settle down.
spk_0 And because the week of the race tapering, like part of like the taper crazies
spk_0 is that you're like, almost out of routine.
spk_0 Even though you're still running, like the intensity has gone down so much that you feel like,
spk_0 I imagine this with my dog feels like when he's on a leash, she's terrible.
spk_0 No.
spk_0 You're just like pinned up.
spk_0 And that's how I feel.
spk_0 Like even yesterday, I think I did my shortest run that I've done in probably six or seven weeks.
spk_0 And I all day was like, I feel like I should do more.
spk_0 I want to do more.
spk_0 Should I go do more?
spk_0 And I was like, don't.
spk_0 Like, you're sick.
spk_0 One, or I'm like on the mend, which is good.
spk_0 But I was like, your body doesn't need it.
spk_0 Like, you'll still be able to run 26 miles, so that you run more today or not.
spk_0 And I think it's just hard because this is like the time that the tapers about to start.
spk_0 And all the doubt actually does creep in.
spk_0 Like, if I felt this bad during an easy run, like I didn't feel like amazing this morning.
spk_0 So just treadmill early.
spk_0 I'm like, I have to get the kids to school.
spk_0 We had things scheduled.
spk_0 Am I going to do my hair?
spk_0 Like my mind is busy, you know?
spk_0 Just silly things.
spk_0 I have to do her hair.
spk_0 How am I going to do that?
spk_0 Anyway.
spk_0 And so I'm like, my mind is so busy.
spk_0 And so that's when doubt creeps in.
spk_0 It's like, am I going to feel like this during the race?
spk_0 Like, what if this cold doesn't actually get better?
spk_0 What if it's one of these lingering colds that I had like all of a sudden it turns into a cough?
spk_0 Am I going to be coughing on race day?
spk_0 And it's like, if I am, I am.
spk_0 But, you know, I know that I've had it for this long.
spk_0 And I'm going to, everything's going to be okay.
spk_0 I think that just like the doubt that creeps in where it's like, I've performed really well in so many workouts.
spk_0 Like, did I do too much?
spk_0 And then, or it's like, did I not do enough?
spk_0 And then, you know, you're just like doubting everything.
spk_0 But I still have like a workout tomorrow.
spk_0 I've won Kays tomorrow, which like, I'm always like, what?
spk_0 Coach, why do you hate me?
spk_0 I hate one case.
spk_0 I love I'm going to hate him, you know?
spk_0 But, they're like a great, you know, it's like, I'm going to be a great, you know?
spk_0 A great workout just for like a little, it's not even like a confidence booster.
spk_0 It's just like a good one for turnover and stuff.
spk_0 So, I'm feeling really good.
spk_0 I just, I think this is like the first race in a long time where there hasn't been a lot of like outside situations.
spk_0 Like, for C.I.M, you know, it was like, I lived in Cedar.
spk_0 I was really unhappy up there.
spk_0 I was frustrated.
spk_0 Like, is, is, am I being like a victim of my situation?
spk_0 Am I not making the best of it?
spk_0 And then, for OC, I was like, you know, we were selling our house then.
spk_0 And stuff like that.
spk_0 And so, I am so like this one, you know, it's been, it's been like a tough couple of months in the sense of like,
spk_0 my husband's doing this and that.
spk_0 And so, I'm really excited to spend some time with him in Chicago and just hang out and go to nice meals and things like that.
spk_0 And maybe talk about something other than like our daily schedules.
spk_0 It'll be so nice.
spk_0 So, you know, in that sense, I'm like really excited.
spk_0 And to meet so many people, I'm so excited about that.
spk_0 And, yeah, so there's so many like exciting factors around it.
spk_0 I think the actual race itself, I'm so excited about, I'm always nervous about race day logistics.
spk_0 I know.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Every time.
spk_0 Every time.
spk_0 I'm like, oh my gosh.
spk_0 I'm nervous about flying there.
spk_0 I'm nervous about like, well, people are saying that you have to get there so early now.
spk_0 But I'm like, last time I went, I didn't get there that early.
spk_0 And I was behind.
spk_0 I don't know.
spk_0 And I like to be there really early, but I was like, right on time, everything was easy.
spk_0 I didn't wait in tons of lines and stuff.
spk_0 So, I'm like, did it change?
spk_0 It's just so funny.
spk_0 You start to like question absolutely everything.
spk_0 So, I'm going to be on my period during the race.
spk_0 That's exciting.
spk_0 Just another.
spk_0 I'm being.
spk_0 I did it.
spk_0 I'm too.
spk_0 Having to factor that in.
spk_0 Another logistical thing.
spk_0 I know.
spk_0 That's like the worst when your period lands.
spk_0 I know you've had it a few times.
spk_0 So, it's like, yeah, you threw at this point.
spk_0 But it's so frustrating when that happens.
spk_0 You're like, come on.
spk_0 It could have just like finished or waited a couple more days.
spk_0 I don't know.
spk_0 Seriously, even just for outfits standpoint.
spk_0
spk_0 I know.
spk_0 Then I'm so sick of wearing black shorts to races.
spk_0 That is so annoying.
spk_0 So, I'm necessity at this point.
spk_0 So, yeah, I mean, at this point, it's like, it's not something that I can change.
spk_0 So, at least being prepared for it.
spk_0 Also, knowing that I can perform well on my period is a huge part of it.
spk_0 I don't know if it's true about the testosterone levels.
spk_0 But I have fully convinced myself that my, that whatever hormones are happening in my body on day two of my period,
spk_0 that it is amazing.
spk_0 And I will gaslight myself into that.
spk_0 Like, nobody's business.
spk_0 I'll be like, it's, it's making me so powerful.
spk_0 Hey, it works for you.
spk_0 It works for you, right?
spk_0 Like, breaking up the race into three different sections of nine miles, nine miles and another eight.
spk_0 Oh, so crazy.
spk_0 You think?
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 It's not that bad.
spk_0 It's just nine plus nine plus eight point two.
spk_0 Anybody can do it.
spk_0 Anybody can do it.
spk_0
spk_0 So, it's exciting.
spk_0 I feel like, I mean, you feel like this too, I'm sure, with like just feeling like you want to finally just use the all that speed in some way, shape or form.
spk_0
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Like, you probably feel this because you've done so many workouts where you've, you have built up, you've done long run workouts, which is essentially like, I don't know.
spk_0 For me, the long run just means so much.
spk_0 Like, it really just is such a different kind of confidence booster.
spk_0 But it, each one makes you feel closer to race day, you know, every time you do it.
spk_0 So it's like, for you now, not having a race on the box, I'm sure you feel like I need to expend this energy.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 It's so true.
spk_0 I think that's why that workout felt so satisfying.
spk_0 I was like, oh, I just, I seem to know I still have it in me because I haven't raised it a lot to prove it.
spk_0 So it's just like nice to see that like, okay, I could still see five's like somewhere with my fitness, but.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Which is your own race.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 I know I really do wish that it was just easier to go and race.
spk_0 I'm surprised that considering we are so close to Vegas that there isn't more there going on, you know.
spk_0 Or that is not a bigger running scene because it is pretty clear.
spk_0 I'm just surprised, I guess.
spk_0 I don't know.
spk_0 I mean, maybe that's what my next venture will be putting on.
spk_0 I would be like, I lost everybody's registration.
spk_0 Sorry, guys.
spk_0 My dog's a my child ate it.
spk_0 Charlotte P. Don't it.
spk_0 My child colored all over your bed.
spk_0 I'm sorry.
spk_0 No, that would be so real.
spk_0 It would be like, Grace, the next time he dropped his oatmeal on it.
spk_0 So mine is just one of the crunchy.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 What a crunchy.
spk_0 Oh my God.
spk_0 Oh, man.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Oh, but yeah.
spk_0 Anyways, I, um, grandma's registration registration opened up last night and I was so close
spk_0 for registering.
spk_0 I know the half marathon sold out in 75 minutes.
spk_0 No.
spk_0 It's crazy.
spk_0 I didn't know it was like it's that it's, it's a great race.
spk_0 That's, it's not even that it's a big race because they do have limited spots.
spk_0 It's just that it's a great race.
spk_0 I think it's because it's just, it's, you get what you get.
spk_0 Like your, it doesn't change your two year.
spk_0 Like the weather's pretty consistent.
spk_0 The course is fast.
spk_0 It's a PR friendly.
spk_0 So it's just like you get what you get every year.
spk_0 It's very consistent and it's results.
spk_0 And so it's like, and then the time frame of when it falls.
spk_0 It falls in like June.
spk_0 So you have like a good amount of time to build for one more marathon by the end of the
spk_0 year if you want to.
spk_0 You know, it's the timing works so good.
spk_0 Yeah, that's so true.
spk_0 That's what I was like trying to explain because my was like, why would you want to do it again?
spk_0 Sure.
spk_0 I have power.
spk_0 Charlotte, you have school in a little bit.
spk_0 Give me two minutes.
spk_0 Okay.
spk_0 Or go pick out an outfit.
spk_0 Um, you should do it again.
spk_0 I'm all for it.
spk_0 I know.
spk_0 I, I probably, I, I probably will.
spk_0 I, it's hard to like be going into a race and being like, hey, I'm going to sign up for another one that I might.
spk_0
spk_0 I'm somewhere.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 But I feel, I mean, if anything, I think I would probably just go by myself, go do it.
spk_0 And I feel like once I, once I run Chicago to, I'll have a much more clear vision for what next year will look like.
spk_0 So it's true.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 It's just exciting.
spk_0 I think, you know, I, I'm going to, I definitely want to pump the brakes on the majors.
spk_0 That's like a big one for me.
spk_0 I mean, I don't do a bunch of majors.
spk_0 So like, I don't need to pump the brakes on it.
spk_0 I guess I haven't done one in two years now.
spk_0 Um, but they are just such a big endeavor, you know, and there are so many great races.
spk_0 And yeah, I just logistically.
spk_0 I'm like at the time that it falls in June is just such a good time.
spk_0 But because I, you know, Matt was like, well, what about like Houston?
spk_0 You've talked about that one.
spk_0 I'm like, mm-hmm, that's in January.
spk_0 We are not.
spk_0 I will not be running another one in January.
spk_0 And like, I've noticed how much harder these marathons are on my body now.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Just taking the time to like respect that plus those two weeks off after and everything.
spk_0 So those mandatory two weeks off.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 The hardest of the paper I swear.
spk_0 If not harder.
spk_0 They really are the first week amazing amazing.
spk_0 Yeah, amazing.
spk_0 Like it feels like going.
spk_0 I don't like this at all.
spk_0 And you probably won't like me.
spk_0 I don't know.
spk_0 That's what it is.
spk_0 You're not going to like the version of me that doesn't run.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 It's so true.
spk_0 All right.
spk_0 What am I supposed to do?
spk_0 More laundry.
spk_0 I'm not really.
spk_0 Exactly.
spk_0 That's exactly it.
spk_0 But I will be pacing my cousin in a race.
spk_0 If anybody is doing the Las Vegas marathon, I'm going to be pacing her doing it.
spk_0 So that's exciting.
spk_0 I don't know.
spk_0 It's perfect for that one.
spk_0 I think it's only the second year that that race has been on.
spk_0 Oh, crazy you.
spk_0 It's pretty.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 What is that?
spk_0 It is October 25th.
spk_0 So, you sign up for that one.
spk_0 You should sign up for it.
spk_0 Are you closed?
spk_0 No, probably not.
spk_0 Is it, is it like pretty steeped down?
spk_0 No, it's not.
spk_0 It's a very flat.
spk_0 It's like a very gradual.
spk_0 I'll send you the first app.
spk_0
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Yeah, I was,
spk_0 well, I don't know.
spk_0 I wish you could pace me.
spk_0 I wish you could just run it together.
spk_0 I would be like, wait, I see you on air.
spk_0 Well, yeah, I, so I, I like, I'm not making like a couch,
spk_0 coaching announcement.
spk_0 I have been coaching.
spk_0 So I want to do this race specifically.
spk_0 So,
spk_0 Mickey, a coaching announcement.
spk_0 She's coaching.
spk_0 Yeah, this is my plug.
spk_0 Anybody?
spk_0 No, I've been coaching.
spk_0 It's.
spk_0 Okay, honey.
spk_0 I'm going to do this.
spk_0
spk_0
spk_0
spk_0

spk_0 And so, you know, we've been discussing like the rate at like what race day will look like a lot.
spk_0 And so I, I was talking to him about how easy it is to just go out too fast, especially with.
spk_0 Like it is just a very gradual.
spk_0 I think it's less of a drop than mesa.
spk_0 I'm pretty sure.
spk_0 As far as like Boston qualifying standards, you wouldn't have to add on any extra time.
spk_0 I would have to double check that.
spk_0 But I know it's not under the like 2600 foot drop at all.
spk_0 And so I was, I've been talking to him just about like logistics of what even like a gradual downhill.
spk_0 It means like does it take the like the bonk factor out of it?
spk_0 You could still bond pretty easily if you're doing that.
spk_0 And it's just so easy to go out too fast on those kinds of courses.
spk_0 Because especially with a gradual, you never know when it like I feel like those like anything.
spk_0 Then when it's like up a little bit, it's like, oh my gosh, this feels so jarring.
spk_0 It was like, and you just have to be prepared for it.
spk_0 Like you do want to bank time essentially like or for energy, like bank your energy.
spk_0 Because towards the end, you don't have any push left if you haven't banked any of that.
spk_0 And so just discussing that because you know, when I showed him the course map, I was like, oh, it is like a, it's like a slight decline.
spk_0 You might feel like really, really good for those first 16, but like be prepared.
spk_0 Like that you might not feel that good because you know, it's just, it's hard to like navigate that because I am so used to flat courses where you can.
spk_0 Well, CIM isn't a flat course by any means.
spk_0 CIM is like you strategically run up a little bit and then down a little bit and you always like for me, it was like run 655.
spk_0 It's like run 655, a 655, and then you know, you can lean into a little bit more.
spk_0 So your average is one thing.
spk_0 And I was just thinking about that.
spk_0 I was like, anybody who's running SCAM like right now is the time that if you're on a treadmill, you start adding ups and downs, ups and downs.
spk_0 Every minute, every two minutes, like, yeah, that is the game changer.
spk_0 Because I remember being like, oh, I knew it was going to be hilly.
spk_0 I did not know.
spk_0 It was like, it's like someone who, it was like handing a child a pencil and being like draw a road and they were like,
spk_0 just coming down, coming down.
spk_0 Like, it's big.
spk_0 My gosh.
spk_0 And that map was to do a justice because it map, it'll show the hills on it, but it's like, it's like little bumps and it looks like it's going downhill the whole time.
spk_0 Which I mean, your first half of your race is faster.
spk_0 Like, my first half has always been consistently faster than my second or where it levels out.
spk_0 But it's still up and down.
spk_0 So mile 18, when you hit that and it starts flattening out, just pancake flat.
spk_0 You're like, what is this?
spk_0 Yes, yeah.
spk_0 And it like doesn't feel good.
spk_0 You're like, because at first you're like, oh my gosh, I would do anything for like a flat straight away.
spk_0 I feel like mile like, I don't know, 13, 14 years.
spk_0 And then when you hit the flat straight away, you're like, actually, I take the hills again.
spk_0 I know.
spk_0 I need the whole momentum up and down.
spk_0 It is the weirdest thing.
spk_0 It's like you, you would take the other either way just because you are so fatigued.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 It's just, it's so, it's so hard to like explain how much up and down there really is with that course.
spk_0 And it's, it's strategic.
spk_0 It is super, super.
spk_0 It's a great race.
spk_0 I would love to do it because mentally I would be so much more prepared now to go and just because I would, I would do my treadmill every three minutes if I could because I did train a lot of hills.
spk_0 I trained a ton of uphill, but I didn't think I didn't account for like, so when I run, I don't have quick leg turnover.
spk_0 That's I run at the same, if I'm running a half marathon, I'm running the same as I'm running a marathon.
spk_0 I don't have quick leg turnover just because it's something that I haven't worked on and it's something that's on my mind quite a bit.
spk_0 So for me, when I'm running downhill, there's not like quicker leg turnovers.
spk_0 So for me, it's like, like I fatigue very quickly on a down, on any kind of downhill because all of a sudden my legs are like falling and it's like my legs are not used to going that fast.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0 Yeah.
spk_0
spk_0 So that's why I don't I get mad about one case quite a bit because I'm like, wait, that's so much faster than a marathon.
spk_0 Oh, man.
spk_0 Well, I got to go pick up Hazel from preschool.
spk_0 It's really 11.50.
spk_0 I know.
spk_0 I got to go do.
spk_0 I know you got to get your girl ready.
spk_0 But we do want to let you guys know this will be our new landing platform.
spk_0 We'll be pushing that link out more consistently just to get everybody to realize that, you know, we're shifting over to this platform.
spk_0 And yeah, I mean, we're still accepting reviews.
spk_0 We want to hear like, I guess today we talked about unhinged figuring out that you're pregnant, right?
spk_0 So I think it'd be fun if you guys submitted.
spk_0 If you didn't, if you have like any pregnancy stories, if you're finding out that you're pregnant that are just like crazy or just like a cool memory or cool experience that you had.
spk_0 Submit those because we kind of want to do like a fine episode in the future.
spk_0 We just like banter off of them.
spk_0 We read them.
spk_0 We talk about them and just like discuss it with we think that you find connection with the community.
spk_0 So we want to tell your stories as well.
spk_0 Yeah, yeah, we're going to run out of it.
spk_0 But like we want to tell your guys this story.
