    Here's hoping that I find this challenge again for January! I love this! I created a challenge for a group I am in for each of us to do an Ironman equivalent over the month... amazing how quickly people finished it up! I like how you all are keeping track of time too... Anyway - I hope you continue these and that I find you in about 10 days! :blushing: :bigsmile:

    Goals:

    Swim - 2.4 miles
    Bike - 112 miles
    Run - 26.2 miles

    December 1-7:

    Swim - 0 miles/2.4 miles left
    Bike - 36.67 miles/75.33 miles left
    Ran - 6.32 miles/19.88 miles left

    December 8 - 14
    Swim - 0 miles/2.4 miles left
    Biked - 20 miles/55.33 miles left
    Ran - 0 miles/19.88 miles left

    Not sure when I did the following (but sometime over the last week or so, so...) (also, I've noticed that it takes me twice as long to cover the same distance on the cross trainer as running, so I'm going to double my cross trainer distances. Kinda cheating I know, but with the ankle I can't really risk running - distances below are already doubled):

    Cross trainer:
    5.15 miles - 54 minutes 6 seconds
    2.86 miles - 29 minutes 10 seconds
    1.24 miles - 12 minutes 26 seconds

    Bike
    12.43 miles - 39 minutes 45 seconds
    13.04 miles - 35 miles 16 seconds

    Totals so far:

    Swim - 0 miles/2.4 miles left
    Bike - 112.14 miles/0 miles left - DONE! Yay!
    Ran - 17.17 miles/9.57 miles left - over half way!

    My plan for the rest of the month is to get in the pool! I've calculated that I need to swim just under 200 laps, which I'll split into 4 50 lap chunks. The pool is closed Sunday and Monday (Christmas day & Boxing day), so hoping to get in tomorrow for 50, Tuesday and Wednesday for 50 and Friday for 50.

    I need to do another 7.71 km (with my weird dividing in half thing), which means over 1 km for the next week. I can do it!

    Through 12/23

    Goals
    Swim: 2.4 miles
    Bike: 56 miles
    Run: 65 miles

    Totals:
    Swim: 0
    Bike: 35
    Run: 42.6 miles

    Swimming tomorrow morning FINALLY! And getting my road bike for Christmas, so I should make the bike goal. Probably not going to make the run goal because I added wrong when calculating my goal based on training program I'm on, but I've only skipped 1 scheduled run (a 4.5 miler) all month, so I don't feel too bad about missing the goal.
