    Today I'm actually considering entering a real one.

    IM Wales is 16th September 2012, 2 months before I turn 40. Maybe a way to celebrate that milestone?

    Good excuse for a Tattoo as well :laugh:

    I don't know, it's such a big time commitment, but it would be cool...

    Ok, so the conversion to miles with each workout is driving me a little batty so I'm going to make it easier for myself and everyone... LOL! I've converted the IM distances to km's (with a little rounding off) and will go from there. Sigh... I know, I know, I gotta make things difficult... :)

    As of today, Nov 5, I am at:
    Swim: 1km (out of 4km)
    Bike: 17km (out of 180km)
    Run/Walk: 5.4km (out of 42km)

    When you enter swim or bike data you can do it by your effort. When you enter run data you can only do it by your speed. What's up with that? I did a rather hilly trail run today that was amazing - and Hoo Doggies!!!, did it burn calories! - but you'll never know it by my rather pedestrian exercise entry.

    Regardless, it was a great run. Trails were muddy and difficult to gain traction, rocks hidden under every leaf, tree stumps everywhere, and endless fog. Throw in a few close friends and I gotta tell you, this was a run to remember. I can't bring myself to wash the mud off my shoes. Guess I'll have to clean them the old fashioned way - run in them another time or two.

    Still, even when the mud is gone, this was one of those days that the numbers will never tell the story of joy of the event.

    To date:
    Swim: 0M
    Bike: 32.61M
    Run: 6.46M
