All right, Kyle! It would be great to see you on deck more often again!!! :D Thank you! Glad you haven't kicked me overboard yet :) Took my Aunt for her check-up at the cardiology dept. today. Seems the waiting room was teeming with overweight men and their worried wives/ partners.... all while the...

I'm gunnin' for 200k the body is not weak...the mind is weak

Nice sentiment in that picture, Lisa. But shouldn't she be sitting the other way? And shouldn't she have another oar?

The Virtual Team Challenge starts Wednesday! This means it's time to set a goal for yourself! My goal is 200,000 meters. I have two doctors appt's in Jan. My medical records used to say 'obese', the look of shock & awe on my doctors' faces is PRICELESS! Using my erg has been life changing. Lisa and...

I went to the Biltmore Estate while I was in North Carolina visiting my brother...check out the old fashioned torture device they have in the middle of their gymnasium!!
Wish I could have tried it out! (I think)

ETA: After reading up on the web, I conclude I have bruised ribs. Apparently nothing to be done except make sure to keep breathing deeply to avoid pneumonia. I will have to be cheering from the sidelines for a bit. Lisa, I had bruised ribs about a month ago. Taking deep breaths hurt, as did bending...

I demand pictures of this table. Our blacksmith gives us pictures. We'd like to throw some appreciation around this joint. Andy, my specialty is making big pieces of wood smaller...hence the mini Mt. Everest I've created out of sawdust behind my shop! The table is based on the "hayrake" table that ...

Yes, that challenge is coming up fast! We will be tracking challenge goals for it just like we did for the FTC, as well as tracking funds raised. 200k is a great goal -- helps keep those holiday treats in check! (I noticed Kyle has changed his picture to a pie already... :P ) The Holiday Challenge ...

Knocked out my first HM this morning. It was really a non event for me. I just followed the long slow distance mantra. I wasn't worn out at all by the end. I do need to continue to stretch out my distances and continue to improve my technique before undertaking a full marathon distance. My time was...

Question: The site says "Each team rows or skis as many meters as they can collectively between 12:00 a.m. September 15 and 11:59 p.m. October 15." Now, is that 11:59 pm Vermont time, or the rowers time? That's exactly right Diane, it IS Vermont time! Oh, and I drove to C2 headquarters in Morrisvil...

I know it doesn't seem like much when David rows more than that every season and it's taken me years, but better slowly than not at all!!

Good for you...Seems like much to me, so does the umpteen miles of trail running you do

Get Well Soon, H! I remember working my tail off trying to keep up with you when I first started... Thanks...and I'll be working my tail off trying to get back to my old form, too. That was a special year for me, hopefully to be repeated sometime. [/quote]Speaking of hummingbirds, last week I saw a...

Would really like to do a team push to re-claim 9th Place when I get back! Anybody with me on this? Absolutely, but I won't be up to 200k/month for awhile. I posted 30.5 k today but that's the total of my rowing sessions in June, July and today. No way was I going to post 500 m here and there....hy...

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrgh I can't believe I was close to to 1 million, I should have looked prior to working out this morning... and no time to get any more in prior to be off for another 7 days... oh well.... That is just going to have to wait until I come back to reality on July 8th. Every one have a safe...

All hands on deck, making the wheel fly! 12 of 40 members (30%) logged 135,730 total meters Monday! Kyle J - 12,000  What are your goals for the season? My goals are to eat better to stay @ 180-185 lbs., and get my waist sub 40" :x . My time management skills suck. I can't row a lot AND amount to a...
