At 39 weeks pregnant most women would only be thinking of racing to hospital. But
not Amber Miller, who set off to run the Chicago Marathon while expecting her second
child any day.
As she neared the final stage of the race, she began to feel pain in the stomach.
But the determined athlete managed to cross the finish line in 6 hours and 25 minutes.
Unbelievably, the Chicago race was not even baby June's first marathon — Miller
ran the Wisconsin Marathon earlier this year, four months pregnant. She also ran
another marathon when she was about four months pregnant with her son, Caleb.
Although there was extra weight, the seasoned runner's time was just 3 hours off
her personal best.
Miller began to feel pain near the end of the race, but she was not sure if it
was labor (分娩), because she typically feels some pain when she runs while pregnant.
- 2 -After her race her husband drove her to Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield where she
gave birth to the healthy 7 pounds, 13 ounce(盎司) baby.
Miller decided to run because she and her husband had already signed up for the
race. The athletic mother said she experienced an enthusiastic welcome from crowds
as she ran along. But the devoted runner, who had completed eight marathons, admitted
that she did get a few strange looks along the course.
“I know what I can handle. This is something I've been doing for a long
time，” the experienced marathon runner said.
June was born at 10：29 p．m. on Sunday night after seven hours' labor.
“She's absolutely perfect，” Miller said. “We are extremely happy, but very tired.”
After her surprising double achievement, Miller says she is planning to take some
time off to concentrate on being a fulltime mom. 5．What can we learn from the passage?
A．Miller failed to finish the race due to her labor.
