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

[Kona2]

Crikey, I keep looking at the weather you are getting in North America and it is difficult for me to comprehend!
So stay safe and warm…
This morning it was humid up in the shed so had a fan running in the pre-dawn darkness…

And great work to brotherjim and friends, metres are metres no matter how they are achieved!

Cheers, Baz

Woohoo and hooyah! SIXTEEN million lifetime meters for Baz during that pre-dawn row, too! Well done with a crikey thrown in for good measure! Congratulations, Baz, on another stellar achievement. We wish you many, MANY more!

Day 7 or 8 of 31....oh that feeling of having a target on our backs.....

Getting a push from some other long time teams as additional teammates are added to all teams! Still, a month is a long challenge as we all know -- and is not for those who are faint of heart. Keep the erg pedal to the floor, Lunies...and BELIEVE you can do it !! Then add some more minutes on the erg or ski-erg!

Speaking of ski-ergs, there are some teammates who are rocking out on their skiergs! Here's a link to the individual contributions on the skierg! http://log.concept2.com/team/teamStandi ... e_index=54

[bg]

oooops...sorry that i am sooooo far behind....wooo hooo and congrats to everyone's wonderful milestones....and welcome and welcome back to folks....and hope everyone is staying safe out there :}

[BAZzy]

Woohoo and hooyah! SIXTEEN million lifetime meters for Baz during that pre-dawn row, too! Well done with a crikey thrown in for good measure! Congratulations, Baz, on another stellar achievement. We wish you many, MANY more!

SWEET SIXTEEN
Great to see you back Baz! Your warm weather reports have me dreaming of summer We are luckier than some areas of the US. It is a balmy 5 degrees F this morning.
I have been derelict in my duties and have failed to welcome all the new team members and returning friends. So WELCOME
Da Do Ron Ron[/quote]
Thanks Ron, I must say it is good to be back and feeling much better for it. The “big” plans for the mountains went on hold through 2013 due to the injuries, but all things happen for a reason.

The challenge was a good opportunity to ramp it back up and the body seems to be working perfectly!

The weather; overcast in the Harbour City this morning, light rain, but a relatively warm 18 degrees.

To all Luna-tics in North America – stay warm and safe…
Cheers, Baz

Missed the daily update again, so it looks like I had 2 days off, and not just 1... Oh well, at least its already in the challenge total

I almost always grab the numbers about 730 AM MST. We are 7 hours behind you, so that would put it at 3:30 or 4 PM your time. It's not a perfect system since I can color outside the lines with the best of them. Should help if you know about when the number pick up is happening.

[Kona2]

Woohoo! Two more canoeists have reached the 100,000 m milestone and claimed their canoes: Elton Giogri and Robyn Lee. Congratulations!

Whoop, whoop and hooyah! Jim's been really busy getting those meters done (and sending out encouraging messages to teammates)! Congratulations, Jim, on achieving yet another TWO million meter rowing season! We wish you many, MANY more!!

[Kona2]

I've captured the numbers that were posted as of 745 AM (I think ), and will get the stats posted later today. Lots of busy - and I'm going to get a row in myself before all the busy really starts! Keep the erg odometers clicking away !!

[brotherjim]

Thanks Kona for the congrats and very kind words. . Great rowing team, very exciting challenge.
