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. :)
I had a feeling you got the numbers early morning. On weekdays, I'm always going to be posting late. Speaking of which, I'm off to row another 5 digit distance ;-)

At the rate you're going it will only take 5 years to get around the world! Are you looney? :P
Congratulations, and keep up the rowing - and try to avoid too many things where you injure yourself.

It may not be quite as cold here, but if it keeps raining like it has this last week, Oxford is in danger of going the same way as Atlantis and I'll have to row to work and back!

Whoop, whoop and hooboy! Sam lives up in Arctic Circle land, where the aurora borealis is often on display. We're adding some virtual Lunie fireworks to the night skies above Sam's house to celebrate his achievement of ONE million season meters...again! This is a celebration we hope to repeat many, MANY times! Way to go, Sam !

Image Day 9 or 10 of 31...still LOTS of opportunity!

Well, rats. You knew there would come a time when a competitor bumped us off the number one spot...and it happened yesterday afternoon when the FIRT overtook our boat. We need MORE canoes! Many things can STILL happen...so keep those meters uploading! We are one week away from caricatures starting to appear as teammates hit the 200,000 m milestone. I gotta pick up my pace !

Congrats Sam on another million meter season! Also congrats to all teammates who have earned canoes .
Been icy here but nowhere near as cold or snowy as so many of you have to suffer through. Please take care.
The ONLY good thing about the ice is that when a guy with permanent vertigo is walking about among "normal" people, you can't tell which is which. Plus I have 2 poles to help me. lol

Whoop, whoop and hooyah! It's ANOTHER million meter celebration! Harold is just outside the arctic circle (I think), but he's going to be seeing some northern lights today, too, and he crosses the one million meter milestone. Congratulations, Harold, on achieving yet another one million meter rowing season! We wish you many, MANY more !

Some say that we might even see the Aurora here in Colorado at midnight or so tonight - thanks to Harold and Sam for sending them our way with their milestone celebrations !!

I claimed a reindeer in the holiday challenge, I've every intention of claiming a canoe. Maybe even a caricature, but I've never done 200k in one month before - in fact, I've only done 212k lifetime! But, If I'm going to achieve the million by summer, I need to get going!
