All I can say is WOW. Not only is she a supermodel and mother of 3, Natalia also managed to squeeze in a half marathon between walking in two runway shows at Paris Fashion Week.
In between walking for Givenchy and Stella McCartney, Vodianova ran to support her charity, The Naked Heart Foundation, which builds playgrounds in her native Russia.
According to the Daily Mail, the model has also been working the fashion circuit in Paris and was pictured on the front row of several shows with new boyfriend Antoine Arnault.
The relationship comes after she split from her long term husband Justin Portman last Summer.
The pair, who married in November 2001 when Vodianova was just 19-years-old - have three children together, ten-year-old Lucas Alexander, Neva, five, and four-year-old Viktor.
Vodianova separated from Portman in February 2010 but didn't announce it until last year.
Vodianova is known as the supermodel who went from rags-to-riches after her poverty-stricken upbringing in the inner city of Gorky, now called Nizhny Novogorod, in Russia.
As a teenager, she helped her mother sell fruit on the streets of the town to earn money. and later set up a fruit stand with a friend to help the children out of poverty.
However, at the age of 15 Vodianova enrolled in a modelling academy and two years later signed with Viva Models in Paris.
Unsurprisingly, she is known as the Russian Cinderella in her homeland and in 2010 was estimated to have earned more than £2.5million, making her one of the world’s highest paid models.
She currently has an exclusive three-year contract with French lingerie firm Etam - where her range is called Natalia pour Etam.
