O-M-G ... I cannot believe that number was naturally occurring ... did you just row some bizarro amount of meters to land us there!??

Luck and some bizarro. I rowed 15K, card read the meters - and saw that we were 1669 meters shy of the 111,111,111 ....so....back to the rower and card reader - and hoped that I would be the one to get the meters in, and not overshoot it!

WORLD Erg Challenge: Battle of the Ergs, Day 2/3

Post by Kona2 » March 16th, 2011, 9:51 am

Welcome to three new/returning Challenge teammates: Pat B, James T and Dwight H! Our team is quite international - JAM, CAN, MEX, NLD, AUS, NZL/Japan and USA! Glad to have you with us! Hope I didn't miss any countries....

And now, just 24 hours after the Gauntlet hit the ground on Tranquility Base (our current lunar habitat), day 2 finds us in 3rd place in the Battle of the Ergs. Row strong - the galactic winds are so unpredictable!

That was a sweet moment you captured, Jan! Way to go, er...I mean...row! "Number One" takes on a whole new dimension now.

Pat, James and Dwight, welcome!

To AJ and Chris, I raise a toast to many, many more good years together. Congratulations!
