And the battle continues!! Never doubt that even a few meters make a big difference!!



18 Million Virtual Team Meters! Way to row!!

We're certainly going to surpass the 19 million meters the early data suggested we might reach....Ross's new calculations may be closer to the reality....OR we can go even beyond those projections!! Why not?! The meters are there for the taking!!

[Kona2]

To the moon, mates, to the moon!

And the dial reads: 3,701,014 m

As we prepare to enter our victory orbit of 11,526,910 m, crew members are checking out the lunar maps. We have several seas to explore, gimondous craters to cross (hiking and biking an option here), valleys, and truly the mountains of the moon (not those in Africa) just beg for a mountain bike tour.

What a day we had yesterday! Almost three-quarters of a million meters were logged by the team! Spectacular Tuesday effort!

Season meters as of 270/365 = 91,537,094 m

Total meters on the day = 729,804 m

Oars in space (participation) = 43 percent! Woot!

Hey K2,
I guess I'm getting a little obtuse in my numbers game but yesterday I was "not quite ready for prime time": 3 5 7 11
Ron

Yep, I missed that reference....although I see it clearly now!


The Gap Narrows: 267,508 m separate the three teams......ROW! What a glorious battle!

As we tighten the belt....

As the GPS might say....recalculating....recalculating!

Distance to lunar landing is : 6,113,816 m at the time of this posting! Woot!



And we're all rowing like crazy (so we should have the advantage?!)

Wowzer....sounds like ANOTHER snow day might be coming up for some of our teammates in the NE portion of the US....many mentions made of Hartford, CT getting another foot of snow today. Tough to keep up with all that snow shoveling AND rowing! (The rowing is the important one! Not that I would mention that a SNOW day is like getting a free pass for more rowing..... )

Cathie is about 10K away from her million meters in the virtual challenge....you can do it, Cathie!! Woot!

[kgallagher]

I'm loving the ArMOONDa! This is the first time I've been actively paddling along and I'm loving it! I have a great crew too. I'm impressed with your meters Jackson-Mario (or is it Mario-Jackson?). My 10 year old daughter put in about 13,000m in the holiday challenge. You are blowing her efforts away with your progress here. Keep up the good work!

Congratulations, Danno, on achieving the 200,000 m milestone and snagging a canoe paddle - you're not one to want to be upstream without one! May your canoe travel even more swiftly in these competitive waters!
