For my next test I might see whether an iPad works, because the screen on my phone is too small to see the participant names clearly (but that's also age being against me ).

Definitely too small on the phone to see names or distances, especially while you are focused on rowing! I would be interested in your test on the iPad, I was wondering the same but my iPad is too old to support any recent iOS or the app.

Congratulations Jack!

Happy to think I contributed to those meters with our little arms race last year.
No chance of a repeat of that this year though, we may still be locked down here but I'm allowed on the water.
sadly those don't count towards the WEC.

Nice Jack, congratulations!

[wolfrich]

Wow. Congratulations. That is so cool. On to 18MM!

[jackarabit]

Thanks for the tickle, guys. Six months less 1 week to roll the odometer on this one. Did some wax on, wax off 250s to celebrate.

Enjoy the mother sport, Ivan. I think you’re in the sweep boats, IIR?

Nicely done, Jack. Ticking away smoothly to the big 20!

I think it would be a nice idea to have some form of hall of fame for team members crossing the MM thresholds. Not sure it is possible to automate, but at least worth manually recognising once I get some form of team website working.

That’s a great idea Dave!

Many congratulations, Jack. I too passed a milestone this week - 15 Million metres! I have to say the prizes for reaching these milestones have improved a lot. At 15MM you’re entitled to a T Shirt and shorts! Wow! I must order the proper size I think I have a sweatshirt (10MM ?) that is huge and consequently I have never been able to wear it. Other C2 booty collected over the years include various T Shirts, a glass, a water bottle, a mug and my prize possession - a chapstick, ha ha, I picked this up at the Crash B’s in 2012. I was so delighted I have never felt able to use it.

Nice job, Jack! I'm nipping at your heels though--just passed 2 mil.

Same bakatcha Debbie! That navy sweatshirt is a tent and it does not shrink. I tried to take reasonable care of mine but turned one cuff red with household bleach. I think the tee with the fan cage graphic is a dustbin relic now. The 15MMm swag is very nice. The tee, also carrying a“fancage” design, is lightwgt cotton with a soft finish and the shorts presumably a Lycra blend which offers a flexfit approach to sizing challenges.

Thanks James. Looking at your VTC total and your CTC time, I’d say you have the right stuff for the long haul and the speedy delivery!

Yes, there are Luna-tics and then there are Terra-tics.

Ps: “Woo hoo!” Is the tell, David.
