    12/9: 4,250 yard (2.414 mile) swim! That's a distance personal best, and meets another goal I had set for myself, namely doing a full 2.4-mile swim in one session. It took 1 hr 45 minutes, but I DID IT!


    Cumulative totals:
    Running/ Walking 4.0 miles
    Biking 34.25 miles
    Swimming 5.48 miles

    My goals are:
    Running/ Walking 29.5 miles (+- 8 hours)
    Biking 72 miles (+- 6 hours)
    Swimming 5.5 miles (+- 4 hours)

    I love the idea of this challenge. I would like to jump in if you all don't mind.

    I log all of my swim/bike/run activities at home so i will add my data later tonight. I am a triathlete so I imagine I might need to abbreviate my goals next month but for now I will keep it at the standard 140.6 distance.

    Great Idea!
