Concept2 Forum

<br /><br />Hi ducks<br />I have been v bad at posting on this site for some time now. I seem to be doing more on the UK forum at the moment.<br /><br />New 2k pb :D :D :D :D - I went down to the Cornish IRC and rowed 7:58.7 which was a major improvement on my previous best of 8:11.0. Really pleased...

Just done my last row for the other January challenge (CTC - 30 minutes at 20spm) so now clear to rack up some more metres for Fowl Play. Planning another 12k or so this evening then 20k for Sunday (while thinking about the competition up in Manchester) and probably 12-15k on Monday and Tuesday depe...

Just given this my last shot as I'm pretty tied up with family etc between now and the end of the month. (This basically means that I can do non-competitive rows that do not mind being interrupted, but no chance of undisturbed time!) Best distance yet of 7,035mm which I'm pretty pleased about as I r...

Did a ranking 60 minute piece PB last night which took me to 19th out of 53 for the 30-39 age group - 13,005m. Pretty pleased about that! <br /><br />Planning another 30R20 for the CTC on Wednesday so I'll do a long steady row this evening just to keep ticking over.

Woo hoo - first million metres completed! I was concentrating on the fact that it was my first CTC 30R20 row and completely forgot the significance of the total metres until later!<br /><br />Looking forward to getting my T shirt and wearing it with pride. On to the next million!

Glad to be of service! <br /><br />I'm sure I can do better than that though. I just wanted to get something on the board. I'll have another crack at it next week.<br /><br />That piece also took me over my first million metres.

Great work Emilia! The challenge certainly makes the metres fly past. I should hit my first million when I row this evening - only about another 5k to go! Should be able to do it + more as the kids are going to the mother-in-law's tonight so I have peace and quiet for a while.

Still looking for "female power"? I am signed up to DIAR and Fowl Play for the VTC, but I'm up for the CTC too if you have space still. Tried to respond on the UK forum, but I could not log in for some reason. I'm working on distances at the moment for the VTC, but could do with some different chall...

I've been so wrapped up with clocking the metres for the VTC that I have only just realised that I've only got another 30,865m to do before my 1st million! This month's challenge has really seen the metres flying past and is a great start to the new year! <br /><br />Great rowing from the whole team...

After a quiet weekend on the erging front I am back into it again for Monday. 20,457 logged this evening. No real reason for the distance, it just happened that way! If I'd thought about it I guess I could have increased it to a HM but I could not see the computer screen to work out how I was doing ...

Hope the woolly knickers helped CaroleMac!! I should think you need them again now looking at the weather forecast for the North.<br /><br />Well I'm back in the pond girls. At last the rower is back in its proper place after the major upheavals at home and the rellies and friends visiting over Chri...

Point taken. <br /><br /><!--QuoteBegin-Porkchop+Oct 6 2005, 06:16 PM--><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><div class='genmed'><b>QUOTE(Porkchop @ Oct 6 2005, 06:16 PM)</b></div></td></tr><tr><td class='quote'><!--QuoteEBegin--><!--QuoteBegin-mallard...

Guys, Guys, Guys ......... !!!!!<br /><br />As the person who started this thread I feel qualified to but in at this point and say thank you for all of your comments. I would like to think that I am well educated, intelligent and have enough common sense to take on board comments such as John's with...

Just checking in quickly - have had an enforced break from rowing due to a complete rewire of the house (all floorboards up, loads of dust and mess) and decoration. The rower was consigned to a shed on 31 August! I am restoring it to its proper place this afternoon so will be adding more metres from...
