    Is it still Ok to join this?

    I would like to do the 140.4 miles as a total as i am likely to swim it more than anything, but it will get me off my backside to do some cycling and running (well in my case at the moment, slow jogging/walking!)

    So far

    2.1.12 - 1.4 mile walking/jogging
    3.1.12 - 0.372 mile swimming
    4.1.12 - 0.372 mile swimming

    134.9 miles to go - heck that works out at 5 mile per day, might be a tough one, but will give it a go, need to get the bike out this weekend i think!!!

    Did a trail run this morning. My pace was horrid, but that's not trail running is about. I'm freaking jacked about a trail race I'm about to sign up for.

    Ran 13.25 / 26.2 miles
    Biked 12 / 112 miles

    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 (1/7)
    Swim - 1.31 miles
    Bike - 20.89 miles
    Walk/Run - 12.70

    Amazingly, I'm doing relatively better at walk/run than bike or swim. I'm worried about making the biking goal when it's going to be mostly trainer rides this month... I'll try to bike this afternoon.
