Way to get us started in the WRC. Bart and Will nice follow up to a great beginning.

I need to come up with a different plan. It took 2 hrs to make 15K today, and that my friends is depressing. I am totally over adaptive rowing.

Lefty
you are amazing......

Dan - Incredible effort. I feel your frustration though.

BAZzy - It's good to come out of the closet and proclaim left-handedness. I'm a lefty living in a right-handed world as well. And lefties are truly the only humans fully using their right mind. The rest of you are a bunch of Luna-Tics!

We just pulled over 100,000,000 metres!

It just happened to be the timing of my logging my metres that made the number, but of course, without the entire TEAM, we are not there.

Great job and well done to all!

WRC: Thru Day 2

Post by Kona2 » March 17th, 2010, 11:17 am

Image Woohoo! Almost a million meters! Great rowing by all LunaTics!

Day 3 finds in the number four spot (we knew Greenville was going to give us some grief) out of 176 teams. The first 14 days of this challenge will be volatile - especially once the bigger teams start their weekly uploads of meters...just sayin' don't be surprised if the rankings show some seismic shifts!
