That is 70.3 miles calculated by
1.2 mile swim (1930 meters)
1.2 mile swim (1930 meters)
56 mile bike
13.1 mile run
What's the magic of those numbers? They're half of the 140.6 Ironman which was simply started as a bet to decide which of 3 existing races in Hawaii at the time were the toughest. Swim? Bike? Run? Why not do them all? Back to Back!
Timing is good for April 1. That way I'd be in good bike shape for the MS 150 and then be able to take some time off for the high school graduation activities.
Something's got to give and it looks like the Houston Marathon 26.2 miles will switch to the 13. 1 Half Marathon. That would be good practice also.
I anticipate signing up by December 1.
