LUNA-TICS TEAM ROOM: Year-round "Looney" fun.

[BigBrett58]

I'm so mad that I couldn't complete the challenge yesterday. A blood vessel came unclotted from when I got my tonsils taken out last week. I had to go to the ER last night and get it cauterized. In retrospect, maybe I shouldn't have rowed my first sub 20 minute 5k yesterday. I don't know if that had anything to do with what happened, but I'm definitely taking it easy today.

Congrats to all of those that did complete the challenge yesterday. I won't come up with any weak excuses next time

How is our progress back from the Moon?

[Kona2]

Hi fellow lunatics...

We are off on our Northern Adventure...
‘The Landy’ will be following a similar route to last year’s with some slight variations, tracking to far-western Queensland before heading northwards towards the warmer weather that the Gulf provides at this time of year... And like last year ‘The Landy’ will be writing a blog and updating with photos along the way, and if you’re inclined you’ll be able to track its progress and check in on the blog at the following links...

Armchair Adventurers -

Highly recommend reading Baz's blog (so I am posting the link again) - it says April, but I believe it is indeed the current trip since the photos are listed as current date. I always look forward to the stories and the photos! Looks like Baz's caravan now has quite the tent apparatus (Star Wars comes to mind for some reason) - trust Baz to find some of the best gear out there! Thanks for sharing your adventures with us, Baz!

How is our progress back from the Moon?

[Kona2]

Whoa....those SC rowers bounced us right out of the number four spot....never fear....we still have 85 percent of the rowing year remaining....still, there's no joy in dropping a rung....

Just a reminder that the weekend stats will be accumulating until Monday...the bike ride is this weekend.....temperatures are going to be in the 90s, and we're all hitting the road at 6 AM tomorrow. I probably won't even be aware that I'm on the bike until at least 8 AM ! That's like free miles !



If you've got an upcoming event, let us know - we'll add it to the list !

Season meters as of 55/365 = 15,507,742 m

Hi Team,
I just had to share, I just reached my first million meters of rowing since I started in February 2011.
It feels so good to get that first million completed.

You are correct the first million is the most excting. All the millions that follow are sore butts and blistered hand. Keep setting goals, stay focused and most important have fun. I see many more millions in your future! Good job!
