yes there was a master plan ... 7800 per rowable day (sun -fri) will get me to the 5000 meter board. However, family issues are looming that may interrupt that. My dear beloved father in law is very ill. He's 105 years old and has enjoyed a wonderful life. I found out today that most likely we will be saying goodbye to him within the next few days...please keep us in your thoughts as we go through this transition.

He was a pioneer in early TV. He did titles, art and special effects in the 50's & 60's. He was the brains behind the Patty Duke Show - where Patty played herself and her cousin.

Post by Kona2 » April 6th, 2010, 11:21 am

Gina - you and your family will definitely be in our thoughts! What a tremendous family history - very few get to celebrate a centenarian birthday...!

The clash of the titans continues (in a friendly team sort of way) with Bart and Wild Bill cranking out the meters. Meanwhile, we're surrounded by a red giant that has encapsulated a full moon, and five half moons!

Season meters as of 340/365 = 108,904,126 m

Total meters on the day = 302,227 m

Oars in space (participation) = 21 percent

MILESTONES....Bragging Rights....Celebrations:


6.0 MM Will S
3.8 MM Bazzy

ImageImage Bart with a posting of 52,195 m earns a red giant....and I'm pretty sure there's a FULL marathon in there plus a 10K....congratulations for that!
Image Will S rows 30K and crosses into the six million meter category with the half moon
Image Dan with a posting of 28,146 m (over a couple of days he says) earns a half moon
Image Bazzy with a posting of 27,504 m earns a half moon
Image Image Wild Bill with a posting of 22K earns a half moon
Image Queen Minnie with half marathon # 236 - edges closer to that 6 MM meter total ...

TWO Million Meter Watch:

David Image with (32,000 m) to go!

ONE Million Meter Watch:

AJ with (95,351 m) to go!

Anne with (117,973 m) to go!

Thanks to all today's crew for all the kinds of meters!

taking an "indefinite" break from work I started my marathons 2 weeks earlier. So I'm doing a warming up of 5K, then the marathon and I'm finishing with 5K sprints, cool down.... In the afternoon I play golf for +/- 6 hours (9 or 18 holes and practice).If my body can stand this, I will try to keep doing this till the end of April.
All my respect to "wild Bill" and what he's doing, it wasn't my intention to take the first place of the luna's.
Let us give all the best we can these last weeks of the season, I'm proud to be part of this team!
