I think the fall challenge is great. Without the current competition, I wouldn't be making the same kind of progress toward my personal goals.

We are doing so well! I hope that each person on the team realizes how important his/her contribution is to the team's total Thanks to all!

Yay!!! We have Christopher John Green on our team. He is one of my heroes.
I am glad we are having this competition in the FRC. It does make it more fun and makes you want to row more. I hope we can finish in the top 10.

The Challenge is a terrific idea...I am passing my 25K/wk without flinching...come to think of it I think its time for another 10K

BTW, have you looked as some of the numbers being posted by individuals on other teams? I am awestruck...some the the team averages are just incredible...we are doing very well with about 48K per rower...but, some of the others, well, Big Blue 184K...Ancients 124K...NFRC 243K...

WOW!!!! My hat is off to all of them

WELCOME CHRIS!!!

We have added a couple of rowers in the past day or so..up to 58.
Challenges bring alot of surprises..team members come and go..teams change position in the line up at a phenomenal rate of speed at times.You never know what is around the next wave..

So stay with it..row strong and just know that all of us are winners.Just by participating.
I think our team has the greatest spirit and strength of support of each other.

GO TIMBUK2!!!

Pat,you are so right about our team having the best spirit and unity. I noticed we have 4 rowers in the top 100 and 9 in the top 150. That is pretty amazing. Plus for a small team we are doing so well.

damselfly · Post by **damselfly** » September 26th, 2009, 1:23 pm

Yes, our team is a lot of fun, and I'm proud to be a part of it!

There are some really amazing numbers out there -- Darlene with over 700,000 for the challenge!

No way I could put that kind of mileage together!

And I want to thank Pat for being such a great captain! She is a great leader and is always so positive and encouraging. She's the reason I picked this team, and I'm glad I did. Thanks Cap'n Pat!!!

I took a run this morning just to remind my legs that they used to carry my body around occasionally, but my hubby is out at a business function this evening, so I'm going to put on The Blues Brothers and get in some good rowing.

Keep rowing strong, everyone!!!

Thanks Pat and Jim. The whole team is doing well, my money is on Lisa if her husband lets her row.

Hope my new team photo is less intimidating than the Viking. I am now the brave "Puss in Boots".
