That's amazing, Richard. Truly awe inspiring!!
We're going to have to call you Drivetofar.
I was almost tempted to say I want to be you when I grow up, but that would only give me 3 yrs. So I think I'll just watch until you become a dot on the horizon.

Thor MW wrote:Well I finally hit my first Million. Um, that’s my first ever million not my first for this season. I aint that good. Grin Almost half of it rowed in the last few months. I think I will try the XL shirt and hope it fits. Some large fit and some don’t. Just for fun today I increased the drag to the full 10. This bothered my thumbs of course but it was fun watching the meters go by quicker. I tried a slightly different grip to see if that would help. I think It may have too. I closed up my fingers and held my thumbs against my hands. This was after they were hurting so I will see the next time if it keeps it from hurting much. I usually have an open grip with my fingers apart and my thumbs sort of out to the sides and I never grip with my thumbs. I even thought about taping my thumbs to my hands but doubt that would work after the sweating starts. Besides, that’s just too much effort. So I will close things up and see what happens. I am strong enough to handle the extra drag, just got to get the thumb thing worked out.
Thanks again to all you Lunes to help guide me along with your amazing support and setting such wonderful examples.
A special thank you to K2 for your daily updates. I read them all.

Snow meters...weather report says you must be saying "MUSH" to stay on top of the snow. I know there are ski erg meters in there. Concept2 doesn't provide a column for those either.

Whoop, whoop and hooyah! Let's hear it for Thor's FIRST EVER one million meters! Make sure you send in for your Tee Shirt and Pin. Congratulations on your achievement....I was sure that I had worn out my rowing machine when I hit the first million since it took me so long. Pretty funny now that I see these folks on their 50th and 60th millions. It's all about the journey! We wish you many, MANY more millions!

Congratulations on the first million, Thor.
I heard a rumble of thunder all the way from here. Way to put the *hammer* down.

And congratulations to all the new canoes. I wonder if the Armoonda will be able to fit on one page.

The ArMOONda canoes contain multiple seats per canoe. It's going to work! I'm sure of it.
