Good effort Jenny, welcome to the rise of the phoenix <br /><br />George

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.

Excellent job, Jenny, on both the 30@20 and the 1,000,000--isn't that wierd to see that many zeros and realize how many hours of sweat and groaning are represented therein?<br /><br />Good on ya, Beth

As an original BIRC 2001 Flyer I thought I really should make the effort and try the 30minR20 session. It was the first time I have ever done more than 10mins at R20 so a total unknown and I managed 8043m. <br /><br />Sorry Parky but I have pushed you down to FF2 <br /><br />If I get chance before Feb. I will try again now that I have a better idea of pacing.<br /><br />

[[old] TomR/the elder]

Well done, Nigel.<br /><br />This means I now have company in the 3d boat, as you have unseated Capt Green from boat 2 and sent him to join me. <br /><br />We need a couple of more hands in the boat, but more important, perhaps you can also send a fast lady to join us.<br /><br />Tom

[[old] languagelady1]

Hey guys--talked to my friend Tracy, and she may be up for the challenge--she's got a lot going on right now, but could help us beginning next month if we don't find someone before then. (She's just behind me in the quad in my pic.)<br /><br /> Beth

Come on board folks, we still have places on board for crew members, male female, old, young, we take on allcomers. Our number one boat is 12th, number 2 now at 19, and number 3 is at number 27. We only have 2 members in boat 3, come and help out Tom R and myself in this boat, its darn hard work racing as a double against these other 5 strong crews, especially for 2 elderley gents !!<br /><br />Drop me a message at stgreen AT ntlworld DOT com<br /><br />Steve

Hi, Flyers! <br />Rick Bayko gets the recruitment bounty - I joined yesterday & took a crack at the 30min@20 this morning. Posted the result (7107) but will definitely give that one another shot, as my split was a several seconds better in the last 5 min than in the first 10 min. Rowing a test at 5:30am is never one's best! (Sigh, am I awake?)<br /><br />Thanks to Rick bringing up the challenge, & to Darren & Steve G. for doing the registration. <br />Hi to Mike McGuirk, too! Will see many of you at the CRASH-B's.<br />Mary P.<br />49, 55.8kg (ltwt)

[[old] TomR/the elder]

Welcome Mary.<br /><br />Any meters rowed at 5.30 are a PB of some kind. Good luck w/ the 2d go. <br /><br />Tom

We call that half past stupid o'clock over here, didn't know that time existed, since I stopped working shifts.<br />Cheers<br />Steve
