Hi Alissa<br /><br />I broke my tailbone too as when I was 8 and then suffered ripped ligaments in the same area last year. The rowing has certainly helped the ligaments, if I don't row for a couple of days I get pain. I agree that you should have someone look at your posture - you could be on the s...

Voodoo Girl - I wouldn't be doing anything on a broken finger myself. Last time I broke a toe I continue to train for a trialthon swim leg. Everytime I kicked off on a turn I rebroke it - you could hear it crunch in the water. I think the long term health of your finger is far more important than on...

Hi Ladies<br /><br />I'd forgotten I'd posted until I got an email there had been a reply. Okay good news, I found a program that really works. Lost 3.4kgs since 22.12.05! <br /><br />It was nothing to do with what I was eating or how much (we grow all our own organic veges and eat very little meat,...

Hi Jen<br /><br />How did you lose so much? I rowed a million metres and lost three kilos. Okay I have a condition which makes it really difficult to lose weight and then they put me on medication, which meant I went up. I've discovered I was rowing anaerobically the whole way which could have somet...

I'm happy to do join too, as long as someone emails me and tells me who to apply to and join. I try and do 10K a day at the moment and it may as well go to a virtual team challenge as well as the DIAR team standings. Cheers Marian

Just keep on going with it, bit by bit knock it off. I did my first Winter Challenge this year and clocked over 300,000. It was hard as it is the NZ summer and hot and humid. I blistered my hands up in the end but I was determined to get to a million before the four guys I was racing at the local gy...

Hiya<br /><br />Forgot to ask : Are there any other New Zealand members in DIAR?<br /><br />Regards<br />Marian

Hello Ducks. <br /><br />I'm Marian and I live in New Zealand, right by the beach on the Kapiti Coast. It is amazingly beautiful here sometimes. <br /><br />I started rowing in late June 05 when my gym decided to do the Million Metre Challenge. We have three cranky old C2 rowers at the gym but we de...
