One can only imagine the amount of strength, discipline, endurance it takes to be an Olympian. Now imagine competing at the Olympic level while several months pregnant. That is the difficult and brave situation U.S. Olympic 800 runner Alysia Montaño will find herself in at the U.S. Championships for the second time. back in 2014, Montaño competed at nationals in Sacramento with her first child. Now Montaño finds herself in the same position again three years later. Back in April, the runner announced she was not going to be competing at this year’s nationals, however her husband and manager have now confirmed the runner has changed her mind. Montaño is definitely living in the game and showing the world that she can do anything she puts her mind to.
