Finished my 2M with a PB on a Half Marathon 1:33:48.7. Don't know when I'll be back in the boat. Gotta close, then move. Hope to be back at it relatively soon.

Jane - welcome back, I was wondering what happened to you. Great idea to go Duck hunting! But first we have to put those Canadians in their place - 9th place!

I was gone for 2 weeks and it did major damage to my average daily meters. Current goal is to get back on that 5K board. The good news is every day I go farther in the 30 min.

Good to hear from you again, Calamity Jane! I was just thinking about you yesterday, and wondering whether life got really busy for you, or whether you fell off the boat somewheres back thar.

Still waiting for the New Grips to arrive. Should be getting to me any time now.

Didn't know one could be a triple dipper, Guess I just wanted to make sure I got my meters in before I ran out of time. Thanks for the encouragement.

Total meters on the day = 120,106 m

Oars in the water = 37 percent

Team News:

Welcome back Dan Thole! Another crew member returns from shore leave! We now have 38 crew members, and room for more!

Check out Orion's photo on the team page - he's moving up the ranks! He is, after all, 7 now and a stronger rower!

Image I'm going to need some help blowing out all these candles!
