Happy Birthday, Dan! Taking the lead from Lance's foundation - ROWSTRONG!

Did someone say a cupcake pizza? :?

Candles ... wine ... it's all good :D
Wild Bill,

I took a page out of your book today. The original 6565 M I rowed this AM left me feeling unsatisfied and since K2 has seen fit to dub me Half Marathon Man I couldn't let the day end without doing one.

So there you have it a HM completed this PM.

Thanks or the thoughts.

toothdoc
You guys are amazing....and happy birthday Dan

Belated happy birthday Doc - I supped some fine single malt in your honour tonight (well, that was tonight's excuse!) Please enjoy a bottle at my expense:

Congrats on your 2 mill wild Bill! Feel free to join the party at the Doc's Pub - if you don't fancy a pint of Guiness or some whiskey, why not try some Scrumpy's Cider? (Cup cakes and pizza might be needed to maintain some semblance of sobriety!)

Gosh ... I'm blushing :oops:

Thank you all for the support and good wishes - and even for the virtual sustenance, although not sure how the cider will go with the cupcake :?

Now on to 10 million metres lifetime ... :D

Hi K2...it was a HM from me on Sunday...little unusual and a slight departure from my intervals. Oddly enough, I got out of bed, had two cups of ginseng tea and a half a litre of water, and rowed it doing the last 2,000m in around 7:20....

I went and ordered another bag of ginseng tea from my Chinese herbalist afterwards....hahahah :lol:

I have never yet. No need to start now.

Thanks Gina, you missed one heck of a blowout though. It's pretty cool getting birthday greeting from around the world. Who'd a thunk it would happen to me.

Thanks again all.

Whoa....another supernova....

Post by Kona2 » July 13th, 2009, 12:14 am

100K....a supernova or dual red giants?

Congratulations to our team legend Kiba.....she of the 100K days.....amazing!

The crew waits patiently while Kiba catches a few zzzzzs to hear of what nutritional fuel she utilized in this effort.....could certainly have been a Kiba pizza, followed by her special million metre cupcakes....

Unbelievable distance, Kiba.
"Great job" seems so inadequate!
