Ward - You should look into buying a trainer.  It was the best training investment I ever made.  I got a fluif trainer off craigslist for $100.  Sometimes they are posted in the Classifieds section on this site.

Thanks everyone for the kinds thoughts about my grandmother. 

Keith, thanks for the info. Would like any more tips you have. Ward, keep up the good work on the bike. I understand completely the bike budget problem. You won't regret your purchase. Shari, you're going to be a fish soon.

Sorry I've been lost in work. Cold and flu season have hit. But tri season is just around the corner!

Anyone up for a February challenge??? How about posting your distance goals for Feb. Set your goal. Any kind of biking, including spinning, recumbent, etc. counts. And for running, you can use walking, elliptical, and runs. OK, I'll go first.

Swim 4000, Bike 56, Run 30. Anyone else up for the challenge???

Carol - Great idea.  Maybe we can do weekly "check-ins" to monitor progress.

Run - 100 miles

Bike - 8 hours

Swim - 10,000 yds

I love challenges.

Bike - 150 miles

Run - 35 miles

Swim - 15,000 yds

I love the goals!!! You can post weekly or whenever using this format:

Earned today / Earned this month / Goal

Here's mine:

Swim: 0/0/4000

Bike: 0/12.8/56 

Run: 2.93/5.93/30

How are the rest of ya'll doing?

Carol

Earned today / Earned this month / Goal

Here's mine:

Swim: 0/0/10 K yds

Bike: 0/0/8 hrs

Run: ?/14.3/100 mi

I'm going to swim tonight and get on the bike this weekend so I can bring up those numbers to something over zero

I did not want to put this down until I had somthing other than biking accomplished this month.  So here it is: 

Swim 1000/1000/15000  yds

Bike 0/34.56/150  miles

Run 3/3/35  miles

Lofty goals buy certainly within reach!

Hey ya'll. Just checking in to say thanks sooooo much for the many inspires lately. I'm getting pretty squirrelly right here before the race. Crazy time at my house. Flu season is roaring at work. They're filming 2 movies in our town, daily sending in the wounded with their minor injuries and major attitudes (OK, not all of them), 19 y/o is trying to pull a "B" out of organic chemistry, 12 y/o is training for a tri in March, 8 y/o has poison ivy all over his face (go figure...how'd he do that in the dead of winter???), and the 2 girls are just trying to stay out of trouble. Richard is having good and bad days, too. But our race is 12 days away and I got a shirt printed especially for it. Will try to post a pic. Anyway, ya'll are the best and I really appreciate your support. Here's my most recent numbers.

Swim: 0/0/4000, Bike 0/14.8/56, /Run 3/20/30.

Not so good for a challenge, but then it wouldn't be a challenge. Ya'll are all doing so good. Keep training.

You are going to rock that race!

Here is my update...

Earned today / Earned this month / Goal

Here's mine:

Swim: 0/1.2K/10 K yds

Bike: 0/0/8 hrs

Run: ?/39.3/100 mi

Getting a swim in today so that will help.  I really need to get on the bike.  I wanted to do 1 or 2 60 min trainer rides each week but it is not fitting in with everything else.

I'm really looking forward to running less and swimming/biking more.  I've gotten in the pool 3 times in the past week and it feels really good to get back into it.  I'm got 15 miles tomorrow and then the taper really kicks in.

Here is my update...

Earned today / Earned this month / Goal

Here's mine:

Swim: 1K/3.45K/10 K yds

Bike: 0/0/8 hrs

Run: ?/43.3/100 mi

Swim is coming along the bike is nowhere to be found.  I wil ride my bike this weekend!!!

earned today/earned this month/goal

Bike     0/56.16/150 miles

Run     0/11.32/35 miles

Swim 1400/5750/15000 yds

I am a little behind schedule, but I believe I can do it.   

So how is everyone doing?!?  Are you meeting your goals?

Earned today / Earned this month / Goal

Here's mine:

Swim: 1.2K/5.95K/10 K yds ~ 60%

Bike: 0/1/8 hrs ~ 12.5%

Run: 0/54.3/100 mi ~ 54%

Bike has been pretty weak but swim and run have been good for me in February.

I am a little behind, since there is 29 days this month and yesterday was the 19th, that puts us at 65% of the month.  My stats are:

Bike 73/150 miles   49%

Run 14/35 miles    40%

Swim 8150/15000 yds  54%

My 1st two weeks had too many days off, however, there will be better weeks and months ahead.
