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

[Kona2]

Day 5 of 31 !!!

Teams in the 7,8 and 9th positions are all within a good extra effort day of each other! We are currently in spot 8...but our team fortunes could go either way! To the ergs, teammates! To the ergs!

Current standings: https://log.concept2.com/challenges/ftc/2021/teams

If your personal goal is to be in the top ten percent of all participants, you need to have more than 48,000 m logged at this time. Happily there is still plenty of time to put in some extra sessions and get it done. Don't wait too late...you'll still get it done, but oh what a price being deadline driven extracts (in most everything)!

Day 6 of 31 !!!

Fall Team Challenge
September 15–October 15

The Fall Team Challenge is a challenge where team members each individually try to reach either 100,000 meters or 200,000 meters between September 15 and October 15. Meters may be accumulated on a RowErg, SkiErg, BikeErg or a combination of the three.

While we've been focusing on the overall standings for the team, some of our teammates have been hitting the 100 K and 200 K milestones of the Challenge!

Congratulations, Brett, on achieving 200 K Fall Challenge meters! Congratulations, Miran B and Eric on reaching 100 K in the Challenge!

Day 8 of 31 !!!

Welcome to new teammate Frank B !

We've got a lot of teammates putting in time on the ergs - but we CAN'T COUNT your meters unless you are signed up to participate. There's still time to sign up to participate in the Challenge. When next in your logbook, take a minute to scroll over to the teams section, then scroll down to where it says join the Challenge. Even if you're only an occasional erger, your meters can help the team !

More Fall Challenge team members have reached the 100 K milestone: Congratulations to Tony W, Jantuut, Ed, Gary, Cornel and Patrick Hmr ! Good work by all !

To make sure I don't train in excess right now, I'm building in a check point. If I can't maintain a sub-2:00 pace for the entire piece I'm doing, that workout has to be my last of the day. I have 6 weeks left to do a 6:40 or faster 2k row before I turn 40!

Better you than me. Thinking of sub 2 makes me nauseous.

Whoop, whoop and we have ANOTHER Lunie meter millionaire!! Congratulations, Virginia, on achieving a ONE million meter erging season! We wish you many, MANY more...and, in fact, there's plenty of time in this season to become a meter multi-millionaire! You're the 16th Lunie meter millionaire of the season!

[Kona2]

Whoop, whoop and we have ANOTHER Lunie meter millionaire! Congratulations, Zach, on achieving a ONE million meter erging season! For someone for whom less is more (as in sub 2 minutes, etc.), you have zoomed along the meter highway! We wish you many, MANY more milestones and celebrations! And, who knows, some people even get faster after 40....

Zach is the 17th Lunie meter millionaire of the season!

[TallErgs]

1,011,101 meters ! I had to sacrifice the daily palindrome for the seasonal palindrome.

[TallErgs]

I reached out to Concept2 regarding the two issues that Zach cited:

- the negative numbers pulled on his "hurt me" row

- the reset of the PM5 monitor to 0 once 100K had been passed

Here's the reply received:

Ben Hickory (Concept2)

Hi Jan,

It looks there is a bug in the Android ErgData which caused the "going negative" issue. Our developer now knows about it and will work on addressing it.

The max for a BikeErg Just Ride workout is 100K, this is why the monitor reset back to 0. You can create a pre-set single distance workout that's longer than 100K but the monitor behaved appropriately in this case by resetting back to 0 once he hit the 100K max.
Regards,
Ben Hickory

I don't know how I missed this! Thank you for reaching out to Concept2 - I'm eager for an ErgData fix. I can reliably break ErgData now by doing ad-hoc intervals in a Just Row session. It's quite amusing to see the logbook suggesting I averaged 35,000 watts for a few minutes. ...
