From the Fall Team Challenge page: Virtual, long-distance, purely electronic groupings of rowers/skiers and people and/or individuals not affiliated with a club will be allowed to participate, but will not be eligible for prizes. So, we aren't eligible for anything. Rats.

That said, from previous experience back when I first started indoor rowing as part of a corporate wellness team, our prizes were water bottles and Concept2 towels. I suspect that these are still the types of prizes that are sent.

The snow plow guide sticks showed up yesterday....just in time for the predicted snowfall. You know it's winter when you see them...more than a skiff is expected. Get out yer heavy jackets and yer snow boots here in the Rocky Mountains. Maybe where you are, too!

Hey everyone. I hope it's okay that I joined your team. I'm not going to be able to contribute much for awhile. About 100 pounds overweight currently, had a concept2 sitting in my garage from maybe 2012? Figured it was time to get out and use it. I've already lost 40 lbs out of the 149ish I am needing to lose. Hopefully I don't drag you guys down too much.

It's a blue sky day...with four inches of snow. But pretty!

I guess the Home Depot employees knew that it would be a long time before we Coloradans needed lawn mowers now that the snow is falling...someone was having some fun! Me? I was looking for bird food, and got side-tracked by a skeleton yesterday!

This is a good Challenge for everybody! Those new to erging can build their meters towards the Challenge total over multiple days - and so can the more seasoned veterans of multiple Challenges...or you can get it done all at once. Choices are good!

Image Day 2 of 6 !

Two Lunies have ALREADY completed this Challenge: Ed, and also Ken P (look at you go!) ! Congratulations on getting it done! Looking forward to adding more Lunies to the list of finishers.

Just when you think it's Hello Winter, goodbye Fall...you get a 70 F day to get outside and enjoy. Naturally this comes all wrapped up in a winter storm warning for the next day. Naturally. Erging is not optional during a Challenge, though - somehow fit it all in!
