Four photos?! Wow! I only had 2 last year. The camera obviously loves the Taff Attack AIO!

Checked the meter board Niall? <br /><br />Chippy is falling back even more!! that will teach him to try and break my spine <br /><br />Sir Pirate

Come on Pirate, I've heard talk of this "breaking spine" incident three times today but no detail. Are you sure it just wasn't your back hurting through laughing so much (they're funny guys after all)?<br /><br />Haven't checked the meter board for some time now and need to add my meters on there. I suspect you'll need to make the most of whatever position you've got to 'cause it'll be shortlived! Not that us Taffs aren't grateful for your metres though

I'm in for the cross team challenge. I hope I am not the only Taffette who competes because my sprint times are pokey-dokey. Debra? Lynsey? Sue? Anyone else going to play? So December is 6K, any rate, and we have till 12/31 to do it, and where do we post results, here, or email them, or what?<br /><br />I have to do another go at the 4 x 750 tonight, tomorrow a long row, and I'll make sure to do that one after midnight so it counts for the Holiday Challenge...then we're off Thurs, Fri & Sat for Thanksgiving, so no erg for a few days.<br /><br />I tried to post after the races, but my post wouldn't post--it just sat there and wouldn't go on. ?? Anyway, congrats to all who got PBs! It sounded like the conditions were just awful with the dry air. It doesn' t sound healthy at all to row hard with such dry air!<br /><br />

<span style='color:blue'>Results from 2nd go at the 4 x 750<br /><br />1) 2:50.3 av 1:53.6<br />2) 2:48.0 av 1:52.0<br />3) 2:51.1 av 1:54.0<br />4) 2:53.1 av 1:55.4<br /><br />not very consistent, I'm afraid. It would have made more sense if the first one was 2:48, and it got slower.Or if I'd started at 2:53.1 and sped up to 2:48... <br /><br />Felt awful and probably looked worse! arghghgh<br /></span>

All BIRC going Taffs...<br /><br />Great job on all your races (whether you did what you wanted to or not). I'm willing to bet the AIO's where quite the site.<br /><br />All the best to everyone going to Cardiff.<br /><br />Speedy
