Way to Go - Neat Gal

A runner who finished the Chicago Marathon a few weeks ago in six hours and 25 minutes, Amber Miller stole all the attention away from the event's winners. It wasn't so much the 27-year-old Westchester, Ill., resident's finishing time, but the fact that she was 39 weeks pregnant and that she gave birth to a daughter seven hours afterward.

Amber Miller, of Westchester, Ill., holds her baby at Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield, Ill., Monday Oct. 10, 2011. Miller felt contractions a few minutes after finishing the Chicago Marathon on Sunday and gave birth hours later to a baby daughter.
