Am I insane

dbadura01 · December 2011

For the last few years, I've wanted to do a triathlon. So, I finally signed up for one at late spring 2012. I figured it would be awesome to finish a tri before my child is a year old. Now, my husband and I decided to start trying for child number 2 starting in a month or so.

I'm hoping that I'll have enough energy to still train for and complete the triathlon if I do happen to get pregnant right away. Last pregnancy, the first trimester wasn't bad, just tired. Otherwise I ran and did spinning classes right up until the end.

Am I insane for trying to do both?

Good luck!! I am a workout freak but m/s has hit hard!! Hopefully that doesnt happen to you because it has made it hard to keep up my 5 to 6 days a week at the gym.

Not insane, but if you do get PG and can't pull it off (no way I could have in first tri-way too much M/S and fatigue) be forgiving with yourself

I did a triathlon while we were TTC. I got pg right after my race. It's pretty hard on your body and personally I can't imagine training during the first tri but I had bad m/s. You can always try for it and be forgiving of yourself if you can't do it. I signed up for another triathlon next August to motivate me to lose my pregnancy weight. Good luck!

I say go for it!

How long is the tri. A full, half, sprint?
