How many people are part of the ''Million Meters Club'' ?
Is there an online Honour Board listing all members of this club?
Thanks in progress for answering my question.

Hi Remko,

There is no MMC Honour Board!!
But we could start one here!

Back home in eastern California since I returned from Spain at the end of May.

Sub 8 is a thing of the past now for me and there are a few newer octogenarians who have gone sub 8, including the new record holder who was almost 13 seconds faster than my best shot.

Afew years back I suggested to C2 that they create a Lifetime Meters honor board, a listing of total meters rowed by individual. I think I got no response. As I approach 30 million meters I would be quite interested in where I stand compared to the rest of the rowing world. Perhaps this is just too large a project???

We've got one of those.

I should be in the 10MM club

but I'm not sure whether those tables are still being updated.

Thanx Dougie. I did not know that existed. Leave it to you Brits to be way out in front. I wonder though, does this only apply to the UK and, like you, I question whether it is being maintained. i.e. I am approaching 30Mm so should be in the 25 Mm listing and am not.

All that said, what I would really like to see is something akin to the rankings where one could look up lifetime meters (excuse me metres).

Thanx again for the reply
