The year-round Luna-Tics team has some more new team members, and some returning team members! Lunar welcomes to Jeffrey P, Noelle B (one of our 'charter' members), Dennis D, Michelle, and Anita! Great to have you all aboard!

ImageImageImage

Wowzer, mates! Congratulations on achieving 50 million team meters! Hooyah !

Season meters as of 140/365 = 50,488,598 m

Total meters on the day = 4,388,476 m

Oars in space (participation) = 41 percent


MILESTONES...Bragging Rights...Celebrations:

2.3 MM Jay
2.3 MM Cathie
1.85 MM Ron
1.75 MM Rosi
1.7 MM Michelle
1.55 MM Gabby
650 K Robyn
550 K Harold
80 K Kaylee
65 K Ashlee


Kaylee (8) and Ashlee (6) are using photos of Ladybugs, the name of their softball team, as their team profile pictures. The Ladybugs youth softball team is named in honor and remembrance of their friend, Morgan. It's tough for any of us to try and make sense of losses than come to us in our lives - and it's particularly tough for young kids to understand. Here's wishing the Ladybugs a great fall softball season - and hopes that their lessons in friendship will be passed along.

Awww... I didn't make the list today :(.

On the other hand, I now know why people want padded seats if they row for an hour or more. And to toot my own horn: I hit the 150km milestone today, whether Kona likes it or not :lol:

Feel free to toot, toot, toot away, Wim! Sounds like you set a new PB for length of time on the erg seat as well as the 150 K. :D

I think I made the 10,000th post of this thread. Is there a prize for that? I want this picture by my name.

Evidently, there are around 10,000 galaxies in this pictures. I didn't count that many when I tried though. :wink:

Quick note - today's numbers have been captured (I try to do this at similar hours for consistency). At this time, we're in second place for the Fall Team Challenge! Woot ! Please note that any meter uploads that occur after this time won't be included in today's numbers. Posting will be delayed - golf tourney today. It's called Tombstone....and you have to stake your tombstone wherever your score and that projected for a good round ends....there will be many on the 17th hole! So my theme for today's tourney is "Stayin' Alive!" Later, dudes and dudettes!

My wife accidentally pushed the button for me on the PM3; than rowed her PB for 2000m
How do I move her session from my data on the logcard?
Thanks.

Very nice! I considered going for a PB for the 10k this morning, but figured I'd take it easy after yesterday's hour. My rear end is still sore. I tried the folded towel, which after 35 minutes had turned rather solid as well. Then my kids interrupted my workout since one had hit his head. After scolding him for jumping off and goofing off on the chairs/couch, I didn't really feel like rowing so I decided to be done for the day instead :).

Also, my HR belt didn't work this morning for some reason. Battery life is supposed to be around 2 years, so 2 months seems a bit quick for it to die. If I can't get it to work tomorrow I may just try a new battery I guess. Who knows, maybe the thing has been on the shelf for 2 years before I bought it.

Thanks for the welcome, Kona2! The Luna-Tics look to be quite a lively group. I'm hoping to contribute some significant meters in the FTC in the next month. Not nearly as many as the team leaders, but significant for me! :P

Good morning luna-tics, well morning in Sydney at least and a bit of a warmer one, even the sun was creeping up as I rowed this morning which makes a pleasant change to the cold, dark, winter up in the ‘boatshed’.

I see we are holding onto second spot, only just, and it should be an interesting contest against ‘Free Spirits’ who have a similar number on their team...

As K2 has said, contribute what you can when you can, and if you are able to stretch out to another 1 or 2 thousand metres we might even put some daylight between ourselves and the ‘Free Spirits’...


Have a good week, BBB
