Despite the UN human rights lawyer Stephanie Case starting 30 minutes after the other participants and stopping to breastfeed her daughter Pepper, the Canadian trail runner won the Ultra-Trail Snowdonia’s 100K with a time of 16:53:22.

Stephanie breastfed her girl several times along the way at the aid stations. She won the race starting her race from far behind, with no access to an elite bib.

Stephanie writes: "Well that was a surprise 😅,” she wrote. “I went into the 100km this past weekend with no expectations being just six months out from having little Pepper and three years after my last race due to recurrent miscarriages and IVF failures. My goals were to enjoy myself and make sure Pepper was fed at aid stations. As I no longer have a UTMB index, I started in the last wave, 30 min after the leaders. Sure, I had hundreds of runners in front of me, but I could go at my own pace in blissful ignorance of my placing.” 👏

Breast milk changes to meet baby’s needs 🌱

Should you hire a doula even if it’s not your first birth?

Yes! Every birth matters — and every birth is different.
 It doesn’t matter if it’s your first baby or your fourth, each experience brings its own emotions, challenges, and questions. A doula provides steady support, comfort, and guidance throughout it all.
You deserve to feel seen, heard, and supported — no matter where or how you give birth.

Your birth. Your voice. Our support.
