Thanks for the cheers! I was all excited about getting some cool loot for the 50 M lifetime meters ... then, come to find out that the bike and rower are counted separately. Rats. Nowhere near anything for either. Slog on.

Happy Fourth of July to all - and may the fireworks be the best ever!

Apologies - totally forgot that I had homework to do this AM (and I'm not even on the heavy duty meds! Gasp!). So, if the fabulous numeric sequence you were planning isn't exactly right...my bad. All it takes, as we have noted before, is a little different schedule to throw things way off.

Haven't had a lot of indoor time lately - Carol and I have been riding outdoors while we can. We did a 31 mile ride on Sunday, up from a 20 mile ride the week before. Incremental improvement!

Managed 17,004 meters in 30 minutes tonight on the BikeErg, just shy of 300 watts average. I find that higher wattage bike rides 'wreck' me less than the equivalent row session. Those that have both available, is that your experience as well?

That’s an amazing amount of meters in 30 minutes! I haven’t tried the higher wattage - couldn’t push with a bum knee and now that I’m bionic - still getting used to what I can do. In general, just like with biking in the power gears, I would agree with you! Good effort!

SIXTEEN Million Lifetime Meters!!

Post by Kona2 » July 7th, 2020, 10:51 am

Whoop, whoop and why not a two-fer?! Congratulations, Norma, on achieving a lifetime total of 16 million meters...and doing so in palindromic style! Today's 14,541 m palindrome was surely some days in the making to create just the right palindrome for a lifetime total of 16,000,061 m ....good work! We wish you many, MANY more palindromes and celebrations!

I don't spend much time in the 'wreck' zone, so maybe not apples-to-apples, but I think I find a higher wattage approximately 20 minute row a little "easier" for me to maintain than the same wattage for the same amount of time on the bikeerg. Not sure what that says about me.
