British Olympian Calli Hauger-Thackery completes Boston Marathon at 22 weeks pregnant

The 33-year-old Olympian finished the race in two hours and 43 minutes. Hauger-Thackery faced challenges during the race, including a trapped nerve in her glute at mile five, which required medical attention. She also needed treatment again at mile 11 and made two stops for bathroom breaks due to her pregnancy.

Despite these difficulties, she felt a significant improvement in the second half of the marathon, stating, "The second half felt flawless, like I was in tune with my body. I felt a million dollars." While her finishing time was slower than her personal best, Hauger-Thackery emphasized the personal significance of completing the race under these circumstances.
