January - Swim + Run Challenge - GREEN Team (Page 3)

Week 3 Summary

 Re- late posting of logs - at this point I'm not worried.  These will just make next week look even better! 

Hello everyone!

Things are sure quiet...hope it's because you are all training and logging those minutes/miles/meters/yards. Got plenty of days left to win this thing. So keep swimming/running

GO GREEN! ALLEZ LES VERTS!

8 days left folks (inlcuding today).  Hope you have each reviewed where you are at and have a plan in place to get you to your goals!

Go Green!

Steve

Congrat's to Enders Shadow who has completed both their swim and run goals!

There wasn't a planned update to the spreadsheet for today but I was curious to see how people are doing so here's the spreadsheet as of this morning.  I see a number of us need some inspires so come on folks don't let down your teammates!

Steve

Thanks for the update. I'm now up to 16250yds out of 30,000 - but I'll get there, don't worry. Well on track for running with just over 3 hours to go and a long run of 2.5hrs this weekend plus one more will finish that off.

Keep going!

I'll make my running goal with no problem.  I have a slight running injury that I will be nursing for the rest of this week, so into the pool I will be.  I hope to make up some yardage in the pool, I am really behind. 

Alright everybody, let's have a solid last weekend. We all need to hit our goals.

I got another swim in this morning, so am 10,500 yards away, or 3 solid swims or maybe 4. Will definitely hit 30,000 by end of the month. And I'm above pace for my run progress.

Train on!

tom 

Excellent - I like hearing these positive posts and inspires for others to get out there and do it!

I have just over 1000m left for my swim so will knock that off (and then some) in my Tuesday evening tri swim class.

I plan an early morning long run tomorrow morning as I know the rest of the day I won't find time for a run.  That will leave me with 1 or 2 runs to do before the month is up so I should make both goals.

Go Green!

Got my run in this morning.  6 am, minus 8 celsius.  I'm back in the green for both the swim and run.

7.4 km left for the run, 1050m left for the swim. 

Go Green Team!

Steve

Hey all -

Hope you're putting in a solid last weekend for hte challenge. Hit those goals!!!

Today was a great day for me - 4000yd swim, felt great, and then my longest run ever, 16.2mi, also felt quite good. I'm now only 6500yds (2 swims) and 40min run away from my goals. THose will easily happen Mon-Tues-Wed. So, I'm totally set & on track for hte challenge!!

enjoy,
tom

congrats on hitting the goal! way to go

Here's this weeks spreadsheet. 

Congratulations must go out to Chipit Muffin, Enders Shadow, Senja O (swim) who have completed their goals for the month.

I must also note that I noticed Azchica placed 2nd in her AG in a race today and tpeterson02 had an incredible week of training.

If you're close to completing your goal please do not let it slide.  If you're going to miss your goal then please keep at the training and log as much as you can before the month is over.

Go Green! 

Steve

Let's go Green Team.  The finish line is in sight!

Alright folks, only 2 more days. Finish off those goals - don't forget, in the challenge scoring, doing 99% of your goal only counts as 49.5%, whereas 100% counts as 100% (i.e there's a massive incentive to hit 100%.

I got in a solid swim today, 3900yds. Run tonight will take care of the run portion and one more swim tomorrow morning will get me to 100% for both.

enjoy!

tom 

January 31st!  Last day of this months challenge.  Hope everyone is doing well.  I completed my swim distance (and then some) last night.  Tonight I should be able to knock off the run.

Could I ask each of you to post something in your log today once you have completed your workouts for today (or post that no work out is planned if such is the case).  This will help me know when I can consider our results final.

Hope to see lots of 100% Completed!

Steve

I'm bad.  I didn't get my run in as planned.  A blizzard came through last night.  Not that it dumped that much snow but the snow with the blowing winds wouldn't have made for a safe run.  My appologies to my teammates.

Congrats to those of you who completed your goals.  I'll try to update the spreadsheet at lunch today or if not tonight from home.

Good luck to everyone with their training!

Steve

Congrats senjaO, and too bad you couldn't get that final run in, Steve.

Thanks all for a great month!! I hit a new max distance run record with 97 miles, thanks to this challenge!

enjoy,

tom 

Final Results.  Let me know if any corrections are required.

Congrats to everyone.  Wish you luck with your training and future challenges.

Steve

Thanks for doing the reports for us each week!  Sorry I wasn't able to pull through.  Being injured sucks!!

Happy training all!
