Nice erging Tyn!!

3.75 MM here

Shooting for 5MM by this time next year!

Surprised myself by getting to 50K in the Holiday Challenge inside the first week! Being on the road most of the next 2 weeks will prove a challenge.

Nice going!

Buy a Wii and Mario & Sonic olympoc games, and you can 'row'
everywhere you want!!

50k is okay, you should aim for the 200k!

I will, and keep you posted, a challenge in a challenge,
Who will hit the 200k first?

deal, or no deal?

Happy Rowing

I'm not into counting meters. It's a total waste of time and means very little to me. I can't understand the people on this forum that have this obsession with counting how many millions of meters that theyhave done. Surely life can't that boring that you need to spend all that time on an erg just chasing meters.

It's all about quality and not quantity for me. I count the seconds with the hope that each workout there are fewer seconds to count (however that gets harder with age).

Now if the M stood for money then I love to count lot's of it (especially when it gets into the millions). If anyone has a spare million bucks that needs counting I'd be happy to do it for you (hopefully you won't notice some of it missing when I return it).
PBs: 2K 6:13.4, 5K 16:32, 6K 19:55, 10K 33:49, 30min 8849m, 60min 17,309m
Caution: Static C2 ergs can ruin your technique and timing for rowing in a boat.
The best thing I ever did to improve my rowing was to sell my C2 and get a Rowperfect.
