Total meters on the day = 902,531 m
Oars in space (participation) = 38 percent

Re: LUNA-TICS TEAM ROOM: Year-round "Looney" fun.
Very nice job on the bathtubs, AJ. And great job to all those who have put in the effort to achieve one. Way to row. In the past, what was the largest number of tubs earned in this challenge?

Re: LUNA-TICS TEAM ROOM: Year-round "Looney" fun.
I don't know if I will be able to pull a marathon for the Seahawks, but I will be ending all my rows with the number 12, for the famous Seattle 12th man (the crowd). For those not familiar with American football, there are 11 players for each side on the field at one time. Seattle has the World record for the loudest stadium LOB -legion of boom.
Please note, Kona, that the C2 logo on the model ds seems like Seahawk colors

The answer you seek is hidden in the forum pages....
Ok. I went back....waaaaay back....to the 2011 Concept2 season, which appears to be the first time AJ introduced canoes, oars and bathtubs. I believe million meter boats were introduced in 2012 season.
Over the years, I find that I have highlighted different things - and that the graphics that AJ might have used in 2010 or 2011 are gone, baby, gone. I don't have the overall numbers of people who made it to canoes and/or paddles - a statistic that is important to me today. I do have the 500K and above numbers and names. The bottom line is that we have the potential for this to be our best VTC ever with the most in the ARMOONDA, the most meter totals, best VTC finish, and most in the bathtub brigade. Here you go:
2011 Season - 16 bathtubs in the brigade:
Jay
Cathie

Important Request RE: Military Challenge
REQUEST for all teammates who will be joining the Military Challenge: Please do NOT change your affiliation until FEBRUARY 4th ... after all the meters are calculated for the Virtual Team Challenge ! Teams have until February 3rd at midnight to enter their team meters. In the last few years, it has often been a number of 20,000 m or LESS that determines team placement.
Your military challenge meters will still be credited back to the meters rowed for February 1st, so your temporary duty affiliation won't lose out.
Thank you.

Whoop, whoop and hooyah ! While busy paddling toward that hot tub, bg just happened to earn another personal milestone of FIVE million meters for the 2014 rowing season. Simply amazing!
Congratulations, bg ! We wish you many, MANY more !!
And, to save your Bathtub Brigade caricature to your desktop, right click on the image and hit save as....and put it into whatever picture folder you want to ! Or you could put your image on a tee shirt or whatever you want....would be good on one of your running hats....
