So, did you get it done?

Ian Barnes and I will start an attempt to be the first lightweight tandem to complete 1,000,000M on Friday morning. As you may be aware, as a "team" the rules require us to keep the flywheel spinning throughout the whole distance so we will essentially be rowing continually for what we expect to ta...

Anybody contemplated/attempted/achieved a 24 hour skierg? I am considering on doing one this (an attempt at least) year. I have a strategy mapped in my head but am after any advice...

Xc handles don't alter machine perfomance.
Skierg Marathon WR are done with leki ski handles.

Well, I shall have to definitely try them. Thanks!

If you have any ski-only details for the 100k's that helped, feel free to pass them along :) I think this thread has very well covered the broad overview of successful endurance erging, which will 99% cover the ski erg too...but I don't doubt there will be extra nuances to discover! Sure! Glad to s...
