Tough Mudder after baby....

I would love to do one! I am due in September and am looking at dates around June 2014.... Am I crazy? Or is 7-8 months post partum "do-able" assuming I continue to stay active throughout the pregnancy and begin training 6-8 weeks pp (also assuming no complications)... This gives me 5-6 months of training time....

    I think you are not crazy at all and could totally do it!

    I agree with pp, focus on your strength training, not just endurance. And remember that these aren't timed events for the most part, you don't have to run the entire 10 miles. My friends t
