Hey Taffs!<br><br>I see some great stuff happened on our team since while I was away-- great job on the hour PB, Niall, and Daren on your 6K! <br><br>I'm back from Thanksgiving Holiday and feel great, so ready to hit the Holiday Challenge. Figuring on taking the days before each holiday concert and Christmas Eve off from rowing, I've got 24 days at 8334 meters each. That will be more consistant rowing than I've usually done. I'm not even sure if it's more total meters in a month than I've done before, though. But I really want to aim for that consistancy and no excuses, these are the days I'm rowing, no matter what, sort of thing. Maybe I'll even end up with some PBs along the way.<br><br>It's great to be back!<br>Carla<br><br><br><br>

Hello everyone!<br><br>I AM still alive - really!<br><br>Not many meters from me the past 3 weeks but hopefully by next weekend I will be playing a bit of 'catch up' to try to get that 200k Holiday Challenge done. <br><br>It's great to check in every so often to see that all of you are doing so great! Fantastic motivation. I can hardly wait to get back into the rowing routine. And my weary body will be happy as well! <br><br>I am a mere 8km away from hitting the 1 million for this season and about 46km away from 5 million.<br><br>Hope to be posting here a lot more very soon!<br><br>Debra

Hi Debra!<br>Great news on your million for the season! So, only about a week away from making your first 5 million as well. Good to see you on the forum and to have your meters helping us catch MIT.<br><br><br>Carla

Hey there Taffs,<br>PC at home is acting up, so I haven't been able to post over the weekend.<br><br>First - Congrats to Daren, Niall and James for the new PB's. The times just keep comin' off eh?<br><br>Second - Welcome aboard Byron. Yet another State side Taff. <br><br>Third - Tore Foss's marathon record has fallen. I did a 2:27:48.4 yesterday. Sorry Tore. That would make it about two and a half minutes faster than the Swiss Man's (Xeno) time (and he did it on slides). <br><br>Hope all the Yank Taffs had a good Thanksgiving. I could get used to having four day weekends all the time.<br><br>Speedy

To validate the time, did you have in attendance:<br><ul><li>Two independent time marshalls</li><li>One representative from the Indoor Rowing Governing Body</li><li>An atomic clock source</li><li>A degree in astro-nuclear time-keeping</li></ul><br>I just want to make sure after the fiasco of formalising your fantastic 2K WR, that we didn't have a repeat this time round! <br><br>It's amazing that even with the times you're posting, you're <b>still</b> able to post PBs. It must be a great feeling that every time you have a PB it's also a World Record!

Carla,<br><br>Great to have you onboard again. You've got a lot of catching up to do to get Martin in your sights but I know it's in you to achieve it.

<b>Dwayne</b> : well done on your marathon. <br><br><b>Mike</b> : well done on your half marathon. If you find the time : do a 1k and 2k , would like to see your times for those. <br>And give Dwayne a speedy-ticket - he is going way too fast. <br><br><b>Daren</b> ( 6k) and <b>Chris</b> ( 500m ) : well done too ; <span style='color:red'><b>Chris</b></span> : the hunt is on again ( only 3870m to catch you ).
