    I'm in for walking, I made April. No cycling until I get a new rear wheel on the bike so I won't compete on cycling. After I walk a half marathon this Sunday I'm going to start C25K in prep for a 5km run in September so in June I'll compete running i guess

    Edit - I will be measuring in KM so 194 Km which is a little more than 120 miles

    Hi, so I'm new to this challenge but sounds awesome and I'd love to participate. I just have a question, the 120+ miles includes all of these activities together, right? Thanks :smile:
