If we get one more person in our boat before the end of the month, I think Anna will row. How about it, Kirk?

Mike
I haven't been on the erg yet this month, but I HAVE to give it at least one go. I'll put it on the calendar on the wall, that will make it official!

Cheers,

Hello all. I managed to get 4 C2 sessions done in June, 3 of them were 30 min. ones. Although not too speedy at least each new go was faster than the last. I'll keep on plodding. ps. Impressive Nonathlon efforts Mike and Dave. It seems to be more inspirational, for me anyways, when you know the peop...

Dave
I'm in.

I'm going to row as many 30 minute pieces as I can, and try to get a respectable time by the end of the month.

Cheers,

Plenty of rowing just recently - RowPro has been a great source of motivation, especially when I need to work hard. *snip* I'd like to see Avg. pace on the PM and this is gone from Beta Go to other settings, unselect "show relative meters in lower half of screen". This will allow you to use any scr...

There is a maintenance announcement on the RP Oarbits saying there will be no server from 0500 GMT Sunday for 24 hours. This will affect our race as it is scheduled.

I like the 5,000m idea (sorry Tyn, it's a nice way to pay homage to the tiny bubbles in my beer) Let's get the tough ones out of the way while it's still cool outside (and in). I'll try to get under 6:00 minutes before the end of the month. I'm a bit under the weather at the moment with a cold but t...

It was raining, the ACC basketball tourney was on, and I was well rested. So I did my first marathon. Leg cramps with 8k to go slowed me down a bit. From that point on it was just survive and finish. My time wasn't anything to write home about, but what the heck? I was surprised that I had no signi...

Wouldnt mind hooking up with you on Sat for steady state if we can get a good time that works for both of us - let me know what you think I would like that, but I will be in Oslo (away from home) and can not connect with Rowpro. Next Sunday, I am game though. Not sure if we CAN do a steady state th...

Thanks for the row guys, and congratulations on your pb and sb. It was a sb for me as well. Thanks Michael for keeping me honest. It's good to see that you can adjust your goals to even faster paces. I'm thinking of going the other way! :? Oh well. 19:52 this week, 19:4? in 2 weeks, 19:3? in 4 weeks...

I announced the row on the 5K thread as 19:00 GMT, fat fingered the setup as 19:48, noticed the mistake :oops: and

5K at 19:00 GMT

Sorry for any inconvenience.

since Kirk thinks the row is at 1900, it might make sense for all of us to show up then anyway. We can always just do a QR at that time instead. I think everyone currently in the row is posting here on this thread (it would be unfair to move the row if someone else joins that doesn't know the row w...

Kirk, I'm at GMT +1 (until dayslight saving time; it will be +2 then I believe..). So we are 6 hours apart. If you are working (like me and most of us) that only leaves weekends, between about 14.00 GMT - 20.00 GMT. My preference would be (any) Sunday night around 19.00 GMT, but sometimes I can be ...
