Re: TimbukTOO Team Room

Thanks for the welcome back. On Saturday I think I will tackle a 20 to 30 minute rowing session. Those are highly impressive meter numbers. With 5 million in the books, I think it is time for me to start on my next 5 million meters. Isn’t there an annual March Madness or March Mudness challenge comi...

Re: TimbukTOO Team Room

Hi all, it has been over 3 years since my last rowing post and these are my sins...😉 I kind of burned out on rowing somewhere around the 5 million lifetime meter mark. I have stayed focused on fitness though. I move a lot more iron around now than I used to. I have continued to do cardio 2 or 3 time...

Re: TimbukTOO Team Room

Hi team, Sorry I have gone really quiet and haven’t been rowing much. I just needed to change up my activities and I have been focusing on other activities to work on my fitness lately. I may try to jump back in and row some meters for the holiday challenge. All my best and I hope everyone who celeb...

Re: TimbukTOO Team Room

I hope our teammates are all safe and out of harms way, with the recent catastrophic weather. My thoughts and hopes are with all those affected by Harvey or Irma, the fires out west, the monsoons and flooding in parts of Asia, and the earthquake in Mexico. Here in virtual TimbukTOO land we are on th...

Re: TimbukTOO Team Room

This has been one hard Dog Days challenge for me, but I floated across the 30k mark this evening; so it's on to week 4. If anyone is looking for a little rowing inspiration try watching 'The Boys of 36' available on PBS. It is a documentary based on 'The Boys in the Boat' which recounts the story of...

Re: TimbukTOO Team Room

Been a rough Dog Days challenge for me, but I rowed 3 straight days and got my week 2 numbers in. I did a leg workout with weights last Tuesday that left me so sore I couldn't row until Saturday. Glad I hung there, this is my5th straight Dog Day challenge. Maybe I won't go so hard on leg day this we...

Re: TimbukTOO Team Room

I am underway with the dog days of summer. It's a great challenge to help you start rowing consistently and steping up your meters. I met my week one requirement already. Thanks for the great updates Angela. Hopefully I will get a good row in this weekend. For today's workout, I walked a mile...with...

Re: TimbukTOO Team Room

It gets pretty quiet around here during the summer, but let's keep an oar in hand and keep taking care of
business. I seem to slow down in these early summer months. I will use the Dogs Days of Summer challenge to get myself back in gear. Anyone else want to tackle it?

Re: TimbukTOO Team Room

Hey team, I am finally getting back into my regular routine. I am trying torow at least 5 times a week and any time I get on the rower I go for at least 5km. Padre, I don't envy you rowing in that San Antonio heat and humidity. Looking forward to the Dogs Days of Summer challenge next month, it will...

Re: TimbukTOO Team Room

My move is done and I will be rejoining the rowing effort this week. Hopefully the hiatus has done me some good.
