In excellent shape and tough? Yes.
Displaying common sense and care for the welfare of her baby? IMHO, no. Not to mention the unseasonably warm weather in her AO this past weekend, and the number of heat casualties in recent years at the Chicago marathon.
There's a difference between working and running a marathon.
My $0.02...YMMV.
