Periods & Top Performances DO go hand in hand. Just 17 months after the birth of her son, elleruns_4_her_life set a new trials RECORD in the 5000m and secured a spot to her second Olympics. Oh, and did we mention she did it all while balancing her first postpartum period? We agree Elle— “women are awesome.” We can’t wait to watch her race in Paris this summer! 🏃‍♀️ #morevis 📸: Getty/Patrick Smith #ellepurrierstpierre #teamusa #olympics #momsrun #VISibility #moreVIS #VOICEINSPORT #periods #womeninsport #breakingrecords
