you can count me in. I am back into 3 sport training and my plan calls for 2 swims a week each 2,500 yards. So that is 22,500 yards for the month of January.

This is definitely a great way to stay motivated during the winter months.
Enjoy!

Maybe, I would not want to sport a "Failure" avatar two months in a row. We will have to wait and see how December turns out!!

I'm up for the January Swim Challenge.

How 'bout a "bonus" challenge for those who participated in the December Swim Challenge to increase their yardage by, say, 10% in January? Just to make it interesting. . .

I was thinking the same thing during my swim this morning. How about a side challenge for all the people who made their distance in December (100%). The side challenge would be for these people to increase their distance by 10%. Each month those who do not make their distance get eliminated?

I'm in! And I definitely need to increase my distance - December was the first month I got "serious" about swimming.. I'd probably increase by 25% since my total meters for Dec Challenge was so low (8000 to 10000). I like the idea of increasing each month too!

I'd be interested by depends on the rules. I had a very difficult time making my number this month and my run and bike suffered.

I like keeping same teams but anyone new can join the appropriate team.

You live in the Midwest right?? Well there will likely be team in the Midwest.  Although, I've not joined a team yet for this challenge.  You'd be welcome on most any team I'm sure -- as long as you keep your committment to your yardage!
