There is no need for josh to edit his logbook . He just has to make a separate list of cross countries with 200nm total distance and total that up . The entries in the logbook remain the same
Also as mentioned above the distance is 200nm total or 100 nm one way distance

@guitarboy
The rules define the cross country requirements as distance flown to a point which is atleast of 100nm radius from the point of departure .
Its not the distance you fly that counts but the straight line distance from A to B should be 100nm . Only then the DGCA will count it .

For Eg : If you fly from A to B distance = 95 nm under IFR . ATC gives you a routing to fly from VOR to VOR instead of a direct route the actual distance flown will be higher than 100nm ( speculating ) .
The DGCA wont accept this because the B is not within the 100nm radius of A as per the rules
