Pacific Ring of Fire - Week 5

I did a 4,000 Yard swim (4x1000) today which brought my total for the week to 7,000 yards and 37,000 yards for the month. (My Goal for the challenge was 36,000)

That puts me at 100% for the challenge

I am planning on doing 1 more swim before the end of the month to bring my total to 40,000.

All I can say is, I am sooo glad that I joined the swim challenge. Just 1 month of focused training and I was able to clip 8 Seconds off of my 100 Yard Pace and hold that pace for a lot longer.

I hope to continue the base building phase of my training through the first part of January and then kick into a 12 week training cycle for IMCal 70.3 in March.

Thanks for your participation everyone, this has been fun

Hey Ring of Fire Swimmers HApPy New yEAr !!

Total for week 5 is zero. But I was already at 10km and had reached my goal.

As I expected over holidays I did not get to the water .
But i took advantage to spend some time on the bike and doing long runs.


Still mulling over doing either LA Marathon or California 1/2 Ironman in March.

WaterDog Thanks for the support... and good luck with your marathon...

I am happy to report that I met my goal plus 600. So my total for the challenge was 10600. This challenge was great and it feels good to be back in the pool again. Thanks everyone and Go Pacfic Ring of Fire!!!
