LUNA-TICS TEAM ROOM: Year-round "Looney" fun.

[Kona2]

Stats posting will occur this afternoon! I've captured the numbers, all is well - but several appointments this AM.

[Kona2]

Always good to be aware of your surroundings...and whether or not you're prey...this random photo of the day was sent to me this AM by a friend who was out riding her bike near a local golf course. This scene is just primed for Discovery Channel...

Woohoo for you, K2!!! That's some determination! When they swap out that knee, it will be well worn.

Coming to an erg near you ...the next Challenge!

Seems like Spring just started, and here we are hurtling towards the longest day of the year. Happily, it is still a month away. So. Seize the moment! Actually, seize all the moments you can...whatever their specialness might be.


Summer Solstice Challenge
June 20

In honor of the longest day of the year, we invite you to participate in the Summer Solstice Challenge.

The Details....

Row, ski or ride 21,000 meters on June 20.
Note: BikeErg meters are counted as half when applied to the challenge.
Meters can be done all at once in one workout (Set Up a Single Distance Workout) or over several workouts throughout the day.
If you add 97 meters to row/ski 21,097 meters, or a half-marathon, it needs to be rowed/skied all at once in order to qualify to be a ranked piece.
This is an individual challenge. (You do not need to belong to a team to participate.)
Meters must be entered online.
Indoor rower, SkiErg, BikeErg, on water and on snow meters count. You can combine meters to reach 21,000 meters.

We are not the first to have a goal to get to the moon - but I will say that we’ve done so four times, and are now well into the fifth shuttle. It’s a fun route!
