Whew done! *clinks hard lemonade bottle and ibu*

First challenge ever is now at 86,653. Just did 5k and will do more in a bit. The deadline creepeth ever closer!

Not a member of the MRC but I hope to take the intro class in May If I can get into enough shape. <br /><br />Lakeside Fiber.. mmmm.. Don't tempt me to go visit there today. Madison, while being a great place for a rower, is an even better place to be a knitter. I am on vacation so rowing and yarn i...

Eek Don't know what to do. I committed myself to do the 100k and am now 50k towards that but a few days ago I got the urge to do the 200k but it worries me. I just was at 2k a day last week and worked up to 5k this week but to get the shirt I would have to 10k a night. Is this too far to jump from s...

Another Wisconsin rower here. I always did well on nice summer days biking in Madison and the weight would come off. Then hot, cold or wet weather would come and my very borderline motivation would fizzle. Now I started rowing the last week of October and went from 5 days a week and 4 - 5 minute ses...

I have used an application called DietPower at <a href='http://dietpower.com/' target='_blank'>http://dietpower.com/</a>. It does cost and will break down foods and nutrients and calories. It will also keep track of exercise calories used and water consumed. I like your website as well. Really inter...

I appreciate the input. I got the Rower about 3 weeks ago. I started out at 4 - minutes and now up to 2 x 10-12 so I am pressing on to get to the full 30 minutes. So far nothing hurts and my heart rate seems ok. Down about 3lbs so it is a start

New rower here too. Got mine on Friday and spent the last two days practicing good form and reading the documents.<br /><br />Looking to lose 110 lbs and have liked the small bits of rowing in the gym. Thogh I would join up too. Very new to the website and rowing team concept but it looks like a gre...

Thanks for the tips on starting out. I will try to do it. I know at first there will be some muscle burning so I do other measurements like body size and having a C2 computer to keep track of my progress will help feel good about it when the weight number might indicate no or backwards progress. I r...

What a great idea. I just said this same thing to my mmorpg friend. After 6 years of EQ and two of WoW and another of EQ2 (yes, this is why I need this work out more then ever) having a game like enviroment to an exericse would be great. I can play games forever letting time slip out of my life. Wou...

I have no idea what just got into me but I decided to buy a rower after becoming bored with my gym and exercise bike. I am probably 100lbs overweight and am desperate for anything that will motivate me or an exercise I will enjoy. I like rowing at the gym despite the fact it kicks my ass. So today I...
