Hi All, I'm Bill in Atlanta. I did the 200k challenge in December and found it a good motivator, now I'm hooked on challenges. I row on the water as well as the erg. In fact, just got off the water, now going to hit the erg.

Good luck to everyone rowing lots of meters for the JVTC!

Bill

Hello everyone.

I'm Wes from Ontario, Canada. I have a rower that I use for fitness. I participated in the last JVTC as part of Team Canada rowing a bit over 100,000 M. I am getting back into erging after a bit of a stop.

I travel extensively for my work and it isn't to places that have ergs in the hotels. Often, an alarm clock and/or telephone is the luxury item in my room.

I look forward to posting a decent number of metres this challenge time. While the number of metres isn't really my key concern, I know that when I row a decent number that I feel much better. Rising up on the honour board doesn't hurt much either (but I still can't quite figure out how you do a million metres plus in a month ... iron knees, backs and butts I suppose). I am planning for 155 000 this month (5000 a day) but hope for a bit more.


Regards,

Wes

Good luck to everyone in the JVTC; let's all finish without injury; I'm hoping to do 2 hour-long spinning classes a week at my health club in addition to the rowing. But I may have to drop back to one a week for January.

Again, good luck to all... and it's great to have the additional rowers aboard.

Words of wisdom:

Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.


Make rowing a part of your good habits.......

Is there a place to view the accumulated and individual team meters for the challenge?
