True Kallur was born on February 16, 1981 in Huntington, New York. Already at just over 20 years old, she won her first international championship in hurdles, and just five years later in 2005, she claimed the same prize for the seniors. Since then, she has won prizes in both the WC and the Olympics.
Sanna Kallur is pregnant – expecting her third child
For a few years now, she has put her running shoes on the shelf – at least career-wise. Instead, she is expecting her third child. To Motherhood, she talks about the feeling about the pregnancy and what it is like to expect a child when you are over 40 years old.
– The biggest thing is that the stomach “popped” very early this time. I feel almost heavily pregnant even though I’m only halfway there. But I’m fine and I’ve managed to get over nausea, just like in the previous pregnancies, she says in the interview and explains that there was some concern given the age, but that it has calmed down.
What does Sanna Kallur work on today?
Although the professional career in running has been on the shelf for the past five years, Sanna Kallur is still active. She runs an online service called Vibes, focusing on fitness and health, with her sister Jenny Kallur.
Jenny and Sanna Kallur’s relationship today – are both sisters and colleagues
The Kallur sisters have recently expanded their online service with training sessions for mothers, something Sanna Kallur says she herself lacked information about when she was pregnant before.
– I myself have felt a little unsure about what and how to exercise while pregnant, even though I could be counted as a “training person”, so now with a little training in my luggage, I thought I would contribute by “hotting up” the range of exercise which are available for pregnant women and after pregnancy. After all, you want to do crunches and stomach activation exercises, but also train as regularly and fun as possible. I think that has been missed, she says Motherhood.
