Put me down for 150 miles. Need to focus on running and swimming which will bring my overall total down some.

Final entry for June and a total of 194.7 miles moved. Did my first open water swim yesterday and had a panic attack part way :sad: :sad: Good thing my husband was right there spotting me in the kayak:love: . I grew up in the city and never really swam in lakes as a kid, and certainly never in truly open water until…

Adding a few more run and swim miles. MTD 177.4

Some more biking and running this week. MTD 174.6

This is awesome. I already had tons of respect for you getting in so much mileage, but now I have even more. I love it when one of my kids is willing to work out with me. I agree with Dave, you have to enjoy every minute with your children that you can :smile: :smile:

Added some biking and running miles for a total of 153.6. I'm on the fence about increasing my goal again. I know I'll pass it, but yellow is such a lovely color!

More biking & running miles this weekend. MTD: 135.5

Lovely but drizzly ride yesterday afternoon with a friend and added 20 miles. MTD = 115.37

I love it! I realized last week that I've been setting up my training schedule partly based on the weather. Not a great idea to only run and bike when it's sunny in New England because there's a pretty good chance I'll end up doing the triathlon in the rain. My new plan is to set a reasonable and realistic schedule and…

Oh... and added 15.6 biking miles, plus some swim and run miles for a total of 89.7 so far this month. I'm way ahead of where I anticipated being at this point so I'm going to be brave and increase my goal to 150 for the month.

Congratulations on your triathlon! I can relate to the hamstring cramps, happened to me in a road race in April and had to stop to stretch. I'm getting ready for my first tri in July. Good tip about making sure to be and stay hydrated.

Adding 5.6 from running and swimming. MTD 55.9

My children are both grown now and have moved out of the house which has made a major difference for me. When they are home I try to get them to run or ride with me. While they were still in school and living at home I really struggled to get much physical activity at all. I really agree with taxmom9093's suggestions. I…

My goal for June is 125 miles. I started off with a bang today doing a 50 mile women's bike ride. We haven't had weather like this since last October, felt sooooo good to be out in the sun peddling with friends. Now to focus on swimming and running to keep on preparing for the triathlon. June goal: 125 MTD: 50.3

Entering the last of my May miles. Total was 148.7.

Adding some some swim miles, and for the first time since I started this challenge actually met my swim goal! MTD 139

MTD 135.7

Brick day today biked 8 then ran 2.3 at my best running time ever! So excited for my 1st triathlon in 8 weeks! MTD 132.5

Great 40 mile ride today with a group of women I exercise with. We're doing a 50 in June. I've passed my goal of 100, but don't think I'll set a new goal just yet. I have never really earned more than a few token bonus miles on the last day of the month since I joined the group last November and am looking forward to being…

Adding another 5.5 miles for a total of 75.3

MTD 69.8

Added another 7.5 swimming and running. Swim, bike, run... repeat. Getting ready for my first tri in July. :smile:

Happy Friday everyone. I'm really trying to stay in the green this month! Getting ready for a 50 mile bike ride with my favorite exercise friends June 1st. MTD 57.3

Beautiful day for a bike ride in New England! Added 22 miles today. MTD 48

Perfect day for a run yesterday. Got in 8.4 solid miles and felt good at the end. Trying to stay in the green this month, so far so good! MTD 33.5

MTD 25.1

MTD 11.1 swimming and biking

Even though I just barely passed my April goal of 90 miles, please set my May goal at 100 miles. I'm hopeful that better weather will lead to more biking outside.
