This has probably been discussed 100088800 times, but, I'm too lazy to search.
I am due July 24. I quit running about 6 weeks ago (around 27 weeks), mostly because I live in a hot humid climate, and I'm too lazy to get out of bed early enough to run before work now. I'm not planning on doing a triathlon this year (sad face), but there's a marathon and half in mid October. I'm contemplating that.
I have hired a coach for figure training next spring, something I always wanted to do, so I know that will help motivate me to lose the baby weight in a timely fashion (I've gained 22lb right now- at 33 weeks). Hopefully, that will set me up to have a good first year back- nothing spectactular, but perhaps a couple mid to late season halfs.
I had big plans that I discussed on a women's baby board... and pretty much got shot down. Mostly because, I think, the majority of the women there are sedentary. However I was basically told if I planned to come back to running/racing/training within the year that I would be neglecting the baby and husband. Boo.
Thoughts?
