Finally done

Post by pommery » December 24th, 2006, 7:33 pm

I finished my 200k yesterday with 14k and the help of LOTR3.
It feels great te be done.

By the way it's nice to finally post on this forum, I've had an account on Concept 2 but never posted on the boards.

I made it to 90,000. My back problem seemed to be consistently getting worse after I exercised so I stopped cycling and erging a couple of days ago. Discretion is the better part of valor, and there is always another challenge (in 7 days actually).

For a week I'm back to walking to Bellevue Square and doing other exercises like vacuuming....

Happy Christmas, enjoy your toys

Grams, depending on what you did to your back, you might have to take it completely off for a few days. I know that when I pulled a muscle in my back a few years ago, I kept going to work and it just kept getting worse. I finally had to just take two days of just laying on the couch and icing for it to make some progress on healing. Just have patience and you'll be back on it in no time!

I'm finally done with the HC also! It was another tough year with the power outage up here in the NW. I was a wuss and didn't erg while the power was out, and we ended up at the MILs for a few days so I ended up w/ 80 K to finish in the last four days! But, I just finished and I'm glad I stuck with it.

Congrats to everyone else who made it to their goals! Here's to keeping it up in January!
