6 million meters, lifetime, as of today- and 500K for this season( for me this season started in July)- and tomorrow I turn 66.
So today is an auspicious today-
tomorrow will be as well, but tomorrow is promised to no one.

As that old song says:
"trouble ahead,
trouble behind,
and you know that notion just crossed my mind."

In other words..... it's dangerous, so be careful out there.

Rowing... in space!

(Well, technically, low earth orbit...)

I didn't know this, but the Space Shuttle was equipped with a rowing machine on some missions to help astronauts keep fit!

Image

Image

From NASA: "Two rower ergometers were developed to provide Space Shuttle crewmembers with an exercise alternative to the treadmill and ergometer. The rowers were the final element in the suite of Extended Duration Orbiter Medical Project (EDOMP) exercise hardware and were designed to be quiet and effective, while requiring minimal stowage space and electrical power."
