I've done it Finished today and I am pretty chuffed. Wasn't sure how I'd do when I started out, being new to it and all. Hope to keep the rowing up - now I'm getting my own machine, and the January challenge should help with that. Just need to find a team.

I'm still going strong(ish). The run up to Christmas is slowing me down, as I become more of a taxi service for my 2 children. I managed another 1/2 marathon - just felt like it, and I had had to miss a few days because of the aforementioned. I've just under 3000 metres left to go, and I will so enj...

Going to the gym is a bit like a coffee morning without the coffee. Also I ...

Hi There, I'm new to all this, and am going for the 200,000m. :oops: I,ve managed 71,000 already which surprises me, though the blisters on my hands remind me. I'm trying for 50,000m per week with a few apare just in case. I've already taken a couple of unexpected days off. A Cold hit me, and motiva...
