Signed up for a June sprint triathlon

SherryG10

This past summer I did my first "try a tri" in June and thencompleted a sprint distancetriathlon in august. We decidedto start TTC after the last oneand since then I have stoppedworking out and have gained 15 pounds! I went by the theoryof taking it easy when wantinga baby.Well, 5 months later no luck:(I have decided to sign up for anotherone in June and hopefully takemy mind elsewhere.Anyone else stop working out inthe hopes it will help get you pregnant?

Since we were trying for so long and it wasn't working, I decided to take it easy the past few months and I reallllly cut back on my workouts. Obviously, that didn't help! I told myself that if I wasn't pregnant by January 2011 that I was going to run the Pgh Marathon in May 2001, so I guess I better start training!

I didn't necessarily stop when TTC, but that's only because I wasn't that great at working out before. I have gained about 8 pounds since our wedding just over a year ago, and every month I keep saying I'm going to start working out and eating better. But then I make excuses because of TTC and not wanting to disrupt anything by suddenly starting a work out routine (because, you know, I will immediately be so intense while working out!) :P  So, yeah, I need to just suck it up and lose the extra poundage.

I have gained way too much weight the past few years, so I am starting up running again this week. I want to get into the routine before I am pregnant, so I can continue running.

I am trying to keep up my exercise routine while TTC. Right now I work out 5-6 times a week. Right now I'm focusing on upping the intensity a bit to help combat the few extra pounds I need to shed. Plus I really love the distraction.
