All In A Day's ERG: Team Progress Thru 1.26.14
Marathon fever continues to spread through the crew....strangely, it appears to be addictive in nature.... and sometimes exhibits crossover tendencies into other sports when teammates divide their time between rowing and running...maybe it's only the "R" sports....

Great rowing team Luna-tics, and congratulations to all the achievers and those claiming milestones!
We had our Australia Day celebrations over the past couple of days and a long weekend, which we used to get out and about in the Australian bush!
Cheers, Baz

I've caught the "Marathon Fever" too. Unfortunately, I also caught some nasty intestinal bug(and I wasn't even on a cruise ship ). Set 42,195 into the monitor and tried to "gut" it out yesterday but didn't get far

Re: VTC: Day 27 or 28 of 31 ...
Yikes! I'm a slacker! Sorry to Steve G., Mary, Andrea, and Bobbie for dragging me down the river. I'll hit my 200k before Friday, but I feel guilty that I'm not helping to pull the boat along. I guess I should thank you all for the ride.Kona2 wrote:

Re: LUNA-TICS TEAM ROOM: Year-round "Looney" fun.
I've seen Superman ... Here is a video of Henrik Stephansen at the Euro Open Indoor Row this past weekend. He came into it as the only lightweight rower who has gone under 6 minutes for a 2k erg race (5:56.7), so everybody was watching him. And he did it again at this race, right to the tenth of a second - probably was trying to beat it. Amazing to watch.

More on Stephansen - from an article almost a year ago:
This latest time of 5:56.7 sees Stephansen inching towards the Danish heavyweight record of 5:55.5. The time has remained unbroken since 1996 and Stephansen has hinted that it may become a target for him.
I think we can forgive the author of this article for his lack of insider knowledge. But in this forum, we all know that the pursuit of 5:55.5 can be explained best with some stars and billiard balls.

Guinan Jane 31,212 m .. only 157K and some change to 500 K....and SHE IS GOING FOR THE TUB !
You are so right, I am going for the tub. They look fabulous. I am impressed by all the teammates rowing efforts this year and the commitment of AJ and Kona.
Watching breaking bad on netflix (seasons 3 and 4) since I've seen 1,2 and 5. I might start to associate rowing with illegal things I shouldn't by the end of this challenge. I know Guinan serves synthanol but I wonder what she would do with blue meth.
