It wasn’t until Amber Miller finished the Chicago Marathon on Sunday that she decided to lighten her load. Or maybe it was just that June wouldn’t wait. Experiencing contractions minutes after crossing the finish line, Miller, who slogged her way through 26.2 miles in about 6 1/2 hours while nearly 39 weeks pregnant, delivered June, a healthy baby girl, a few hours later. “Lots of people were cheering me on: ‘Go, pregnant lady!’ ” she said. “I was expecting some negative comments. I don’t remember anything.” If she had to do it all over? “Definitely again,” she said. “It’ll be a story to remember.”
