How's it going, pals?

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)

So far (1/14)
Swim - 1.99 miles
Bike - 69.93 miles
Walk/Run - 18.99

So, I need to get my swim in gear. Not sure I'll make the bike goal since I am stuck indoors on the trainer most of the time. We shall see. At least the walk/run goal is in sight this month, which is progress on that front.

How's it going, pals? We are basically half way through the month! :flowerforyou:

January goals:
Swim 10 miles (Way less than January last year (30+) but I haven't swam in some months.)

Walk/Run at least 26.2 miles (about double December)

So far (1/14)
Swim - 1.99 miles
Bike - 77.26 miles
Walk/Run - 18.99

I dislike the trainer and the weather is requiring that I ride on the trainer. Ack. I have to be very consistent to achieve my bike goal by the end of the month. I think the swim goal is doable since I have some planned training with a group the next two weeks. The walk/run is so going to happen this month. Yea. :bigsmile:

I am on track to bike more than last month and I've already swum more (0 last month) and walked/run lots more. So, I'm not doing TOO bad! :laugh:

Ran 26.25 / 26.2 miles Complete!
Biked 30 / 112 miles
Swam 2500 / 4224 yrds over halfway home

I finished my Indoor Triathlon yesterday. Finished 54 out of 84 people. That was fun, I'll be looking for some longer Tri Events this summer...preferrably outside.

However, I need to get ready for a trail race next month. Which means the bike and the swim part will suffer. But, It's always good to get a cross training day in there.

I'm going to have to learn to swim ALOT longer to make that goal this month. Realistically - It won't happen but heck you got to have things to shoot for.

29.2 m run

I think I'm going to aim for an ironman and a half. I think that's probably just about do-able for me, at this point. I'll need to up the bike and the swimming a little.

Update for trail run last night.

IF, big if, (I'm trying to fight off a cold) I feel like I have the energy tonight I'll get in the pool and knock out some yardage...but only after weights. I've been out of the weight room for a month. Have to get back in there.
