"Welcome back, Karyn G and Tom P! We know the days are getting shorter when Karyn has to come in off the water!"

Just to be clear, I am still very much on the water. I am in contention for a seat in the masters 4+ event at the Head of the Charles. The team decided to start erging on the days we are not rowing, so I am putting in some meters a little earlier than usual this year. You won't get a lot of meters from me until I'm off the water for the winter which is usually sometime in November (depending on how cold/warm it is).

Happy Erging to all my fellow Lunatics!

Good to see you posting again, Barbara! You may feel like you've lost all of your fitness, but with your exercise background, that muscle memory has gotta be working to your advantage. Take care of yourself, birthday twin, and I look forward to having you chomping your way up the team page, in the not too distant future. Rah.

Barbara, so sorry to hear you have had a setback. Hang in there!

AJ, I'm really liking all the creativity with the new moon distance ideas. What is Minnie feeding you lately? I think that we really should hang out on the moon awhile since it will have taken us so long to get there.

Great to see you back, Tom!

And welcome to all the new team mates! So glad you could join us.

Lost in Space: Jerry, Dawn, and Harold....good luck wherever you land. Rosters close in a little less than 48 hours.

Well, we will just have to celebrate 32 and 33 million team meters all over again....because when a team member arrives, he/she brings meters. And when they leave, they pack their bags and take meters. Keeping the evil twin at bay....

I suspect that my early capture of the stats numbers (about 4 AM MDT yesterday) is the culprit - I do see that you have a cumulative total of 24,000 m today - great consistency on your rowing!

Apologies to all who looked at yesterday's numbers and wondered if they were counted or not! I usually take a single snapshot of the numbers - yesterday just happened to occur about 3 to 4 hours prior to the norm. Today's numbers will be superb with a combo of a couple days for some of you!

Having trouble with my wireless set up - will be changing that out today - but it is disrupting today's postings! Aaack!
