Imagine running a gruelling 100-kilometre trail race through the rugged terrain of northern Wales.

Did we already lose you? Well, double-knot your sneakers, because now imagine doing it six months postpartum, stopping to breastfeed your baby at aid stations along the way and still winning the whole darn thing.

That's what Canadian ultrarunner Stephanie Case did at the Ultra-Trail Snowdonia on May 17, where she placed first among women with a time of 16:53:22 and made headlines around the world for the viral race photos where she's breastfeeding her six-month-old daughter, Pepper.
