You love running. Your pelvic floor has other plans.
These are the kinds of things women tell us on the phone every week.
Leaking when you run is common. It is not something you have to live with.
You want running back — without the workarounds
- You wear a pad “just in case” on every run
- You drink less before a run, or map your route around bathrooms
- You’ve tried Kegels and you’re still leaking
- You stopped running after a baby — or just stopped — and want it back
- You’re training for a race and longer runs make it worse
The usual advice isn’t working for a reason
Most women we talk to have tried everything they were told. Here’s what’s usually missing.
“It’s just part of running.”
Leaking is common in runners — especially long-distance runners — but common isn’t the same as normal. It’s a muscle and pressure problem, and those can be trained.
“Just do more Kegels.”
Plenty of runners actually have pelvic floor muscles that are too tight, not too weak. Squeezing harder can make it worse.
“Pads and skipping water are fine.”
Workarounds get you through a run, but some — like drinking less — can quietly make the problem worse over time.
What you’ll walk away with
Why running makes you leak
And why Kegels alone so often don’t fix it.
The workarounds that backfire
Yes, including skipping water before your run.
One change for your very next run
A simple, practical tweak you can try the next time you lace up.
Getting back to running safely
After a baby, after a long break, or when building mileage for a race.
Breathing, core & pressure
How your breath and core work with your pelvic floor on every stride.
What a runner’s pelvic health assessment looks like
So you know exactly what happens if you want help that’s specific to you.
Meet Dr. McKenna
Dr. McKenna Gross, PT, DPT
Dr. McKenna is a physical therapist and a runner herself — she has finished ultramarathons up to 63 miles. Running injuries in college are what led her to PT, and after rehabbing her own diastasis recti following the birth of her son, she’s working her way back to running too. Because she treats both pelvic health and orthopedics, she looks at the whole chain, from your feet and hips to your core and pelvic floor.
Her approach is simple: figure out why your body is doing what it’s doing, then give you a plan that fits the miles you want to run.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to be a “real” runner to come?
Not at all. Whether you run marathons, jog a couple of miles a week, or stopped running years ago and want to start again — this is for you.
I stopped running. Is this still for me?
Absolutely. Many of the women we talk to gave running up because of leaking. A big part of this workshop is how to get back to it safely and with confidence.
What should I wear?
Comfortable clothes you can move in — leggings and a tee are perfect. We’ll try a few simple movements together. Running shoes are welcome but not required.
Will there be an exam or anything personal?
No. It’s an education workshop in a small group — no exams, nothing you have to share. You’re welcome to just listen.
Can I bring a running buddy?
Yes! Just have her sign up too so we save her a seat — there are only 15.
Why is there a $10 fee?
It saves your seat and helps us keep the group small. You’ll pay it the day of the workshop.
Pads off. Miles back.
