I have enjoyed your posts, Lisa. I think you can transition out of this role knowing you have helped a lot of people stay motivated.

Thank you all for your kind and supportive words!! I truly appreciate it. The season goes until the end of April, so you'll still have me to kick around for a bit longer!! :)

Lisa,

You've been the constant presence that always provides fun and encouragement over the last couple of years. I certainly hope you stay around as you would be sorely missed.

Thanks so much,
Lee

I see we are still hanging onto sixteenth but it's certainly close.

After making my goal yesterday I finished off the challenge with my first FM. Feels good?

I know that I rarely post anything but I do come here and lurk. Lisa, you are one of the main reasons why I keep coming back. Thank you for all your work, your motivation and may the best always go you way.

Can't imagine :cry: . I row without a pad for normal pieces but when I did my first half marathon Lisa turned me onto using a simple garden kneeling pad and for the extended rows it really works well.

I will be rowing in the military challenge, hence the affiliation change. Not sure if I will be returning when it ends. Thanks for the good times.
