LUNA-TICS TEAM ROOM: Year-round "Looney" fun.

[acrewer]

Wish I had time to row more than the 5K, but between work and kids, there just isn't enough time.

Oh ye of little faith! Did you really think I could sleep knowing we were 5000 meters short?

The good news is that we had 11 participants, and seven of the 11 have a personal best with today's row! That's impressive!

The less good news is that we've only got 95,000 meters - sorry folks! Each of us did what we could, and it's still a good day!

Total time for the 95K = 7 hr 29 min 7.9 sec

even though we didn't get the 100k, still enjoyed being challenged...thanks again everyone and yeah celtics...one more to go.....barbara

[Kona2]

Woohoo ! 100K (and AJ also had a second 10K should we have needed it)!



100,000 m in 7:51:33.7


.....Breaking News!!!....We had plenty of meters to qualify for the 100K....(I do need a time from Tim for his meters --- can't see your logbooks!)

[Kona2]

Season meters as of 43/365 = 6,175,702 m

Total meters on the day = 183,818 m

A whopping 47 percent participation rate! Yowzer, Darryl! Good idea to get the team rowing!

MILESTONES:

1st Team 100K! Will wait for Tim's time to post the overall time!

SEVEN (thus far) personal bests as part of the team 100K row!

600K Chris
300K Steven

And thanks to today's rowers!

Dan 33,155 m
Peter G 14,000 m
AJ 13,043 m
Peter H 12,805 m
Chris 12,335 m
Barbara 12,012 m

Way to rally, last-minute rowers. I assumed that we'd throw out the "midnight Eastern time" deadline after discovering that virtual teams don't count anyway!

Shall we to do this again, sometime? It was a good in-house challenge and obviously generated some personal PBs. (It's hard to remember PB and not BT ... swimmers go for "best times.")

Great Effort in yesterday's team row everyone!

A last second rally even!; with at least 7 PB's for the day! Fantastic! I think we can call this event officially an unofficial success! I think many found motivation, team spirit, personal achievement, a little adrenaline rush, triumph, and a little drama in this exercise. I'd like to see the team do this event again; maybe on a quarterly basis if enough of you feel the same way.

Thanks for your participation and great effort yesterday!

Jan,

I wish you a wonderful ride! We just started biking, so maybe one day will join on a longer ride .

Thanks Darryl for suggesting the 100k challenge! It was quite motivating.

I guess the next challenge is the June 21 21k.
I wonder whether 21,097m (half marathon) would qualify? This way I could "hit two birds in one row," as I am not too god in the half marathon department .

Happy Father's Day to all the Fathers on the team, and everybody's Fathers!

Happy rowing!

I think the quarterly team row is a good idea! Will try to do it whenever I am not traveling.

Happy rowing!

Andrea

[Kristine Strasburger]

Andrea, I believe you can do a half-marathon that day, and it will be picked up by the challenge. I recall C2 even suggesting people go for that extra few meters in the past.

[Kristine Strasburger]

Jan,

Have a great bike trip!

Thanks to Moose and Chris for taking over the stats. I love how this team really works together as a team!

Have a great ride Jan!.

Thanks to Darryl for coming up with the idea for the 100K team row and to you and him for coordinating it. I agree with others about doing it again.
