Join us in our third episode in our series about peri-pregnancy exercise with Physiotherapist, Hannah Finnigan. Today's episode is all about how to safely return to running after pregnancy.

Hannah and Tim discuss the importance of listening to your body and knowing your own limits and Hannah shares a test for new mums to determine if they are ready to return to running. 

For all you runners out there, especially for those new mums, we can't recommend this episode highly enough.
