I would go with the 1st, since the second has more mileage.

In my book the first option would be a lot easier.

Anything special about these distances?  And I count that as 3 day.  How do you come up with "4 day"?

Just my two cents, but I'd be more inclined to get in on a challenge that had the "official" distances with one full discipline each day.  Memorial day weekend would be perfect but I think my wife would kill me.
