As usual there has been plenty of rowing from team Luna-tics, and it has been great to see a number of members signing up! I even managed to tip myself over into the 3M category this morning, bit of a long time coming this season!

Good to hear from Dave H, and I like the ‘rusty’ bit as it describes the Sydney weather perfectly of late. Yesterday was a shocker, today is bewdiful! B)

Not sure if TomO will have sport this weekend, and we are off to Newcastle (sister & brother in law) and I’ve got a sled workout planned for him, starting payback for the Coast to Coast! :wink:

Have a good weekend wherever you are in the Luna-tic universe, take care, and don’t take any wooden nickels... And remember if all else fails, go for the vegemite, 20 million Aussies can’t be wrong :lol:

Cheers, BBB

Vegemite vs. Marmite

Post by Dave_H » March 8th, 2012, 7:18 pm

Lets face it - there is something "strange" about Marmite and some of their branding... (not that there is anything wrong with moustaches, however Minnie may want to reconsider her consumption! :wink: )

Oh, no, Dave ... not you, too, in Team Vegemite's corner! My "consumption" of Marmite is severely limited. As Kona can attest, my 4.4 oz jar of Marmite has a sell-by date of 2007. (I made her try some, anyway. Something that salty will never rot.)

"Eat Marmite or Vegemite? Perhaps you'd rather rip the wings off live chickens. You'd rather be stripped naked in public. You'd rather swallow rat's tails and snail shells." Both spreads, I've found, have vaguely that disturbing of a flavor!"

Moustaches optional.

All In A Day's ERG: Team Progress Thru 3.8.12

Post by Kona2 » March 9th, 2012, 12:08 pm

Hooyah! We are keeping the big wheel turning .... those erg odometers are clicking through the meter numbers! Madness....it's March Madness....and add a full moon...well, there's no telling what today might bring!

Image Madness!! Day 9 or 10 of 31......

Wowzer, mates! The Concept2 rowing universe tipped the number scales at a little greater than 5400 participants in the March Madness Challenge yesterday...yet today the descent has begun! This morning's numbers stand at a little over 4000 participants. So keep "stayin' alive" in this Challenge! I know I've used two of my "get out of rowing for the day" cards...yikes. We have many who have already earned 9 days of the 25. Way to row, everyone! resisting a graph opportunity...

No daily winner posted yet for yesterday, so perhaps we'll see two daily postings today. Past history SUGGESTS (but does not guarantee) that a 10K winner is also chosen on the 9th or 10th of March. Less overall participation = improved chances of winning.... :D

Image ImageImageteammates in the Challenge (and well over 100 rowing consistently!)

Season meters as of 315/366 = 169,703,321 m

Total meters on the day = 632,588 m

Congrats Mitch J on your one million meters! And also Rivka on the 3 million meters! :)

Day off rowing for me, know I need it but I feel like such a slug not doing it :?
