    Thanks HotI. I'd actually read the tough mudder story. Not quite what I'm looking for. While it's intense, and I think her effort was awesome, the bodyfat that is run at is still a fair bit higher than I run at during comp prep.

    Always good to see inspiring pics like that though.

    Hopefully you can find someone with specific experience/information. I do know that it's normal to lay down extra fat during pregnancy to support breastfeeding post-birth and rapid weight loss can affect supply in some instances. I don't actually know, but having very low body fat *might* affect lactation - at any rate, it's probably a good idea to find out.
    Good luck with your prep
