A big congrats to Daiva who crossed the 50K season mark :D
A big congrats to Adam who passed the 500K season total :D
Way to row teammates! Great job. We have now passed the 15 million meter mark B) It is so nice to be on a team, as each one of us does their part and we combine our parts to be a whole. Does that sound lame?
I really enjoy the contributions each and everyone of you make to TimbukTOO.

Thanks Joe for the congrats. You are always so kind to notice things. Being disabled, means I have lots of time alone in the house and rowing makes my day go by easier. I am just trying to ward off the frustration of not being able to do so many things I used to. Like talking clearly, walking without canes, etc. But I do love the rowing . :D

Well done Jim, that's an amazing mileage.

Dave Holby (second in that list) sits in the corner of the shopping mall in my town rowing 60,000+ metres (on days that he rows). He's aiming to row round the world (40,075,000m) in less than three years. Last season he rowed 16,000,000m.

Many thanks Jim, and continued appreciation for the great job that you are doing with this Team.

Unfortunately I am on holiday between the 20th September and the 2nd October where I am heading over to Canada so my Challenge metres may be sparse!
