When is C2 going to post the link for those who rowed over 200,000 meters for this years's challenge to order the t-shirt?

To see a list of people over 200K for the 2004 HC <a href='http://www.concept2.com/sranking03/chal ... y_2004.asp' target='_blank'>LIST</a> I ordered my t-shirts last week 1. Goto the home page of c2 2. Click Orderonline 3. Register or login (I had to register first) (Yet another login userid and password to remember ) 4. Once logged in, in the top right corner of the page is a search dialog. 5. Type 200K and Go 6. There you go... Hope that helps.

I'm on track to hit 200,000 (barring some fluke injury) on Christmas Eve evening. I'm a relative newbie. I had been doing 4000-5000 meters a day. At Thanksgiving, I bumped that up to 6000 for a couple of weeks, then to 9000. Thats a good step up for me, but its going good and I'm feeling more comfortable doing that distance. I do it in three 3000 shots spread out through the day. Given that as a base, I'm thinking of varying workouts a bit, going a longer row on some days, and some shorter intervals on other days. I'll start working on my personal bests too. I'd like to get to a million meters by the end of the 'year' and that seems within reach (I'm at 400,000 now, having started in September. The challenges have been good at stimulating me to reach a specific goal. Thanks C2!

I should just about sneak home on this one. Was away at site for the first few weeks of the challenge, so only started with it last Tuesday. 13k a day from here on in will crack the 200k in 11 days total As one of the ergers from Britain (I don't think the Scots, Welsh and Northern Irish will like being called English ) I'll be looking to get the t-shirt and the pin through Concept UK.

Not to mention those from Yorkshire!!! (Did they sort out their differences at the Battle of Roses after as that could generate another comple of factions ??)

Having now done over 300k in the challenge you guys are lucky, down here in NZ I get to print off a certificate. No T-shirt, no pin, where is the justice in the world - George

[old] DavidA · Post by **[old] DavidA** » December 21st, 2004, 5:21 pm

George, Does your certificate print upside down? Do you get one with sun and sand rather than snow and trees?

George, try turning your printer upside down, it's much easier!! Tyn The ' no pins ' Netherlands

And if you plan to reach 200,000 meters and order the T-shirt, we'd appreciate it if you would enter your T-shirt size in your logbook to help us plan ahead. (T-shirts can be shipped to US and Canada only) " That is why I changed my address to an USA address.
