Default Next challenge?

Perhaps swim, bike, run? We could even do teams of three, with each member of the team doing their best event...just thinking out loud.

I like the idea. I'm starting to log a lot more miles right now. I had a nice break after Lavaman, but it's time to get back into the swing of things.

I also made the leap and have joined the Dallas Aquatic Masters program. I need serious instruction on my swimming!

The March and April Challenges have been just what I needed to get my lazy butt into gear, so I'm up for any mode of challenge.

I'm up for it, but I might need some help tracking it all. It takes me a solid hour to enter the numbers for each challenge, so I don't have that much time...I wish I did. Anyone up to help out?

I'd be happy to track the distances.

What format do people prefer?
1. A team of one swimmer, cyclist and runner.
2. Everyone sets their individual goals for 2 or more of the disciplines, with two teams (ie like the bike/run challenges but points are combined from multiple sports)
3. A collective goal for all, like completing a 'deca-Ironman' amongst us ie workouts for everyone contribute to one total, with the aim to cover 38km swimming, 1820km cycling, and 422km running (sorry...24mi/1120mi/262mi)
