    January goals:
    Swim 10 miles (Way less than January last year (30+) but I haven't swam in some months.)
    Bike more than 180 miles (30 more than December)
    Walk/Run at least 26.2 miles (about double December)

    Tomorrow is a travel day (700 miles) so I'll probably only get to walk 10 minutes each time we stop for gasoline...

    wouldn't you know it that the cardio area at the YMCA is DOWN for 3 whole days!!!!! No access to the bike, ugh! so I had to RUN around the gym.....so if any one needs to know it takes 20 (yes, that's TWENTY) labs around a basketball court to make 1 mile.

    I'm going to use this to track how I am going against some very good targets.

    Will use the targets above to aim for and see how far short I fall. Doubt I will make all targets as I have only been on and off the gym for the last couple of months with injury/time constraints but hope to get more regular starting now

    Target

    26.2 miles -- Running/ Walking - Walking and eliptical.
    112 miles -- Biking - Usig Stationary bike. This is on my weight days so I think I will fall very short of this
    2.4 Miles -- Swimming or 3863 Meters (As I count 20 meter lengths).

    To Date

    0 Running/Walking
    0 - Biking
    1100 meters or 0.68 Miles Swimming

    Breakdown

    03/01/12 - 1100 Meters Swimming

    what is HIM?

    Half Ironman
    IM - Ironman
    HM would be Half marathon.

    :)

    And I feel your pain about running at the Y, I've been there and done that. That is why I love my new gym, never ever have to wait for a treadmill.

    I finally set up my bike trainer in the basement and logged a half hour. I will wait to update my totals until later. I have a 5 mile run scheduled but there is some heavy snow out, so I may swim instead.
