Stan and Webberg welcome to Free Spirits.
I am sure your will love being members.

Thanks Ann. Its good to be back

Back on the comeback trail today with 2x10 mins. Covered 3818m @ 2:37 pace. Enough to quicken my breath, but not gasping. Just need to build this kind of row up.

Looks like a nice short one for me to get back into rowing. I will give this a few goes

ok, the new erg has arrived, its been set up. Drag factor set to around 125 (5 on the lever). 10 minutes to start with as I havent done much exercise recently and boy did it show. I hit precisely 2000m. Has anybody realised that coronavirus originated on the c2, I now have a cough. Boy I remember er...

ok its arrived. Found it abandoned in my car park when I got home from work yesterday
Will post my first session later today.

ok exciting news. Got an email today saying I am now eligible to buy a C2, so I placed the order a few minutes ago and it should be arriving early next week. Excited and scared at the same time now.

Great job John! Now I am convinced that you are better suited for the job than me! Keep going!!

Stan, could you please remove me from the team, as I am now competing for a different team?

Success and fun with the Nonathlon to you all!

Hi Tako, sorry to see you go but have done as you requested.

Stan - please add another Geriatric to the Nonathon list,. Roger B.

Hi Roger, would love to add you but you haven't registered for this years nonathlon so I cannot add you until you do. I was looking under R for Roger so if you have another nickname let me know

Hi Can I be added to the list.

Crushy 5887 M 54 H

Many thanks

Hi Crushy, you are in.

But we do still need to find a solution because lots of people value the meterboard. I would think something like... 1. Description of skill set needed and likely time commitment. 2. Stan emails members and asks if anyone has the skill set and is willing to take on the role. 3. If that works fine. ...

Hi Dave, Iain and Mike. You are all in. Good luck.
Still no news on when I can purchase a C2

Hi Stan, Could you add me to the team please 'duffyoz'

Thanks, and great work as always, much appreciated

Hi - you need to register on the nonathlon site first. Then I can add you to the team - at the moment you are not appearing.

I have just registered us for this years nonathlon. I have added those names that I recognise as belonging to us to the team but please post here if I have missed you and I will get you in. I have included myself but obviously cant do anything practical until I get my own machine. Have a good season...

Thanks Jon, appreciate the vote of confidence and I wont let you down. I have started by getting us registered on the nonathlon site as a team again. I have added those names that I recognise but if you are a free spirit who has been missed off, please let me know on the nonathlon thread that I am a...

Thank you very much all of you for the kind words. I think Paul hit the nail on the head when he said Free Spirits needs a light touch because the whole reason we were founded was to enable us to do what we want and not be tied down by what a captain wants. The team has been blessed with a lot of se...

Good Evening all. I took on the role of captain pretty early on to ensure we could take part in various erg challenges as a team. This was pretty easy for me to do as I was regularly rowing. Over 3 or 4 years I have not been rowing as much and have admittedly neglected some of my captainly duties. I...

ok just checked our 2k entries. 15 entries so boat A has floated but boat B needs 1 more entry. I will check in tomorrow and see if anybody put in a less minute attempt.

ok, as promised I checked this evening to take into account any last minute entries. There was 1 additional entry from Tim Symington, and as his distance was in the top 8 I added him to boat A, which displaced Peter Sobic. Boat B remains 2 short and C and D have 0 entries. The event now moves on to ...

Good Evening all. I have just checked the c2 site to see how many entries we have this week. Unfortunately only 13 entries this time. The fastest 8 are in boat A and the remainder are in boat B, but boats B,C, and D will not float. I think the deadline is past for doing it but in case there are any ...
