I have this discussion with a buddy about doing a non swimming half ironman distance triathlon. It would have of course a 56 mile bike ride, 13.1 run but start off with a flat water kakak, instead of the 1.2 mile swim. What would be an equivalent distance to that swim? Has anybody done a tri with a canoe or kakak leg?

    Sounds like a cool idea. There’s a lot of non-swimming athletes out there. While I don’t have time for the 2 disciplines I’d guess about 5-6 miles in a kayak would be close.

    100 miles.

    Kayaking is about 2300 times easier than swimming.
