Sprint Tri while TTC?

So we are going to start TTC in June.  I'm considering signing up for a sprint tri in late July.  I've done them before and it would be just to do it...but I'm kind of worried.  Would it be horrible to do it during the 2ww?

I'm assuming we won't get pregnant during our first month of trying but if I was...it would be crazy to do it then too right?

    Go ahead and do it!  Like PP said, you can't plan your life around TTC.

    I ran a few races early in my pregnancy- one before I knew I was pregnant and a couple afterwards.  Once I knew I was pregnant I didn't push quite as hard, but I still raced.  My doctor was okay with it.

    Wooohoo! That's what I hoped to hear.  Going to sign up now.  I'm actually thinking about signing up for a race in August too.  Maybe it will allow me to enjoy being not PG if it doesn't happen this summer.

     

    Thanks ladies!

    I ran a 10K race and got my second fastest time three days after I O'd back in September. I was charting my temps so I know when it happened and that is the month I got pregnant, so even doing a fast race doesn't mean the little seed can't stick! I say definitely do the race and good luck :-)

    Go for it! We actually conceived the same weekened that I did a really tough sprint tri last summer. I like to joke that i jogged the baby into place.
