Congratulations Dan for the 2M!
And hope none of the coming storms affects you.

Happy rowing!

Gina

[Calamity]

Thanks Gina - and happy birthday wishes -either late for this year or early for next.
I though I would get there sooner, but with the shoulder injury and my partner saying why are you taking various meds and still rowing, I took three days off. I have an appointment with a PT tomorrow.

Thanks for the race. I hope to get back on my machine soon.

I must say the 'sore no more' seat pad is working nicely. Much better than the 4" of foam I was using before.
Gina

My 'sore no more' seat pad arrived yesterday ... it feels great ... and looks like it'll last about 10,000 years. Thx for the tip, Gina!
Chris

[acrewer]

Yep, I looked at it and thought how can something so thin work? But everyone at the regatta had them. I could see them on the seats in the racing shells. It's not cushy-soft but it does work.

And welcome back into the boat, Andrea! Did you put in some meters while in the UK? It looked like you were able to find a rower there!

I managed to get into the gym at St. John's in Cambrige once and rowed 7+ km on a model C, but that was it (no punting km to report )...
Then I went to Romania where the weather was quite hot, especially after the rather cold UK one...

Now I am trying to recover from jet lag and keep falling of the boat... Good to have Jane catching up on me, that helps gather some energy for rowing .

Jan, have a nice cycling trip in Oregon!

BTW, I enjoyed a lot Chris' pictures from the Grand Canyon! Thanks for posting them!

Happy rowing!
