    We can definitely catch up! But we are further than we have been the past few months!

    8/19: 1 mile walking
    8/20: 1 mile swimming

    Total 2 miles

    Today I did a 1 mi open water swim race. It was awesome. Tomorrow I am doing a sprint triathlon, so I'll have lots of miles to post tomorrow! Great job to everyone!

    I think we can make it to the Top 5 if we keep stepping!

    Good Job on your swim race! 2nd in your group is GREAT! Good Luck Tomorrow! :flowerforyou:

    how big is a standard pool? i did 23 laps each day of our vacation (wednesday thru sunday) but i don't know how to convert that to miles. probably doesn't amount to much, but every bit helps. we have a 3 hour family bike ride coming up next weekend so that should add a bunch.
  • bstamps12

    GBOH: Most pools are 25 yds long, so 23 laps would be 575 yds.... I would round that to 2 miles swimming total (1650 yds is a mile in swimming).

    Todays miles: 10 miles. 1/2 mi swim, 3.5 mi run, and 16 mi bike that converts to 6 miles on the worksheet.

    The sprint triathlon was fun, but my back was in a lot of pain. No more biking for a while. I think my muscle spasms have returned unfortunately. My back thinks it's 60 yrs old instead of 21. :mad: It was God's strength that got me through the bike in my sprint tri today. I had planned to start 10K training now that tri season is over...but we'll see how my back responds to that.

    We are rocking our miles...keep it up girls!!!

    Here is the formula that we received last month for using bike miles:
