Personal Challenge: Row 2.022 Million Meters in 2022. Join me! + Spreadsheet resource

Post by drodio » January 9th, 2022, 2:11 pm

Hello world -- this is my first post, although I've owned & loved a Concept2 since 2015.

I just created a personal goal to row 2,022,000 meters in 2022. Anyone want to join me?

Here's a personal blog post I wrote about the challenge, including a spreadsheet I'm using to track my progress that you can copy and use as well: https://drodio.com/join-my-2022-rowing-challenge/

I'll be posting my progress using the hashtag #2.022-million on Twitter: https://twitter.com/search?q=%232.022-m ... head_click

Hope a few of you decide to join me in the challenge and post your progress as well!

Unfortunately the Concept 2 rowing "Season" is from 1st May to 30th April each year and its not a "Calendar" year starting the 1st January so trying to run anything else is really not convenient if you have to start manually entering rows.

2 Million meters is a good challenge distance if your pushing hard on the the pace.

As Carl pointed out, that is both a good goal, but one that you, and those who join you, will have to track yourselves, as the Concept 2 year is different than the calendar year.
Good luck, however, with the challenge.
