Good luck tomorrow Kristine! Those temperatures are just too cold, it's still t shirt weather in Canada.
I'm working on a Supernova.. sort of.. I was doing really well earlier, right on schedule, but then I took a nap, and now i don't feel like finishing lol. But I only have 19988m left, so it's kind of hard to quit now, I should hire some little elves to work in my bakery...

You can do it
4947m 
I think Einsein missed something in his theory of relativity: The final 10% of a distance is exponentially larger than the first 10% of the distance...
Also, when he wrote e=mc2... he misintrepreted the constant c, which is infact not the speed of light, but the speed of cupcake

I will be using my 30 min. of rowing time tomorrow around 4 a.m. as a warm-up for running the Spokane Marathon which starts at 7. Wish me luck, as record lows for the day are expected (just like last year, only worse, I suppose, LOL.) I will be surprised if it is above 20 F. at the starting line in the morning. Think warm thoughts for me tomorrow, please.
You guys are amazing! And here I was about to break the chain and have a day off!Kiba wrote:Ahhh the sweet taste of stardust (cupcake crumbs)!
I'll race you to 1MM in the FRC Wild Bill(busts out a crazy double super nova...)
I think we should change the nomenclature from "supernova" to "Kiba-nova"!! 
Or maybe a "Kiba-Bill-nova" ?!! You are both inspiring!After planning my day watching the car races & rowing, I ended up having a cr@p day fixing the plumbing in the bathroom... missed most of the racing, and only just getting to the erg now...
Wild Bill, seeing as how you generated so many metres on your "break", does that mean I don't have to do any extra to make up for you??

As a TEAM, we have 5 days (including today) to row another 1.5 million metres and reach 12 million metres for the FRC.
Hey - what better way to let our Astrogator Kona2 know how much we appreciate her than to exceed our old 10 million metre goal by 20%!
