I saw you needed a couple ladies' times, so I thought I would see if I could erg without pain yet. 4 weeks out from 3 fractured ribs and I was able to do short, fast strokes with little resistance without pain! Not a fast time, but it still counts :). Hopefully in a few more weeks I can return to a...

Four Days Remaining - Four Empty Seats - One Sad Face - and a Partridge in a Pear Tree

Time to put in a time if you haven't already folks. Great efforts from those who have

Mercian Nordic Walking team has chosen the following session for the January challenge: 100m 1 min Rest 200m 1 Min Rest 300m 1 Min Rest 400m 1 Min Rest 500m 1 Min Rest 400m 1 Min Rest 300m 1 Min Rest 200m 1 Min Rest 100m Standing start for the first one then rolling Starts. Just post your total time...

I finally scraped over the 100km mark but seem to be short of a snowman. Do I need to do anything else? With it being a certain time of year, the Snow Elves are a tad busy and so only go on Holiday Challenge Snowman duty every now and again. Just because it's you I have given them a prod and they h...

I eventually got around to having a go and I got confirmation of why I should avoid anaerobic activity. After I completed the row I bent over to put the cover on and I got ZAPPED by my defibrillator - I initially thought I had been electrocuted!! I think the combination of anaerobic exercise and th...

Two Weeks Remaining

I am going to start my monthly nagging early, given Christmas is almost upon us. Two weeks to go and 5 seats filled so far. Well done to all those who have logged an entry.

Remember - any time is better than no time

Congratulations Graham. Still hoping to do a FM this season if the stars align.

Great row Claudius Yet again the lightweight seat in Boat I is very secure

I never cease to be amazed at how low your heart rate stays during these intense short sessions.

Indeed. But try as I might I can't get them in the "correct" order. I know how to do it in theory, but in practice......

It’s all under control. Yes, I am a nerd.

100k now complete and I am just ahead of the run rate for 200k by the end of the month., so fingers crossed.

I love the way you just decide to have a try and come in under 3 hours Claudius !

Great row. Very well done. It’s a low DF. Did you move it down for the FM or is that normal for you?

Claudius wrote: ↑Tue Dec 08, 2020 7:52 pm and next go you´ll dip under that 19min, right ?

Nope

Nice to hear from you Ian. I hope you are well. I can see from the Meterboard you have been plugging away.

Jon

Well done Fred. 200k so early is pretty impressive. It looks like that also got you your 1 million metres for the season too.

I’ll get my 100k this week. Hoping to get double snowmen on the Meterboard this year.

2K 6:51.2 and 500m 1:30.1

Nonathlon points galore too

There’s nothing like a competition for a haul of “bests” and points

Some good times on the board already

My row is written up on the PB forum post. 19:18.7 for me, so that's an adjusted time of 17:26.9 for you to chase Peter

Thanks all. I fear I may have set an unnecessarily high bar for the IRL next month now #-o Well it had to be done. Today was a "hard" Pete Plan day and so it was also the day of my first 5k effort for IRL. A number of you commented that there looked to be an opportunity to improve on my r...

The upgrade is complete and everything should be back to normal. Please shout if that isn't the case.

This was a relatively minor update so there aren't any features that you should notice any change to.

Jon

The forum and website software needs a quick upgrade. I will take the site down for a while at some point over the weekend. Hopefully it shouldn't take too long to complete.

Thanks all for the comments. Sorry it has taken me a while to come back to this post. I'm used to long bike rides - the furthest I did was Liverpool - Grimsby - yes that really is an elapsed time over 12 hours. So I know what I can and can't tolerate when it comes to food and drinks. I have always s...

Well done folks. We managed to end the month with a full set of 10 entries. This is a great achievement at both ends of the spectrum. Some of us are struggling with time and/or fitness at the moment and yet still managed to enter a result for the team. Others are flying along and helped to give us o...

Entered a pro-rated time from best 30 min this month (actually a sprint session), didn't realise that you could join part way through and included 1:20 stationery until saw Colin entered a few days ago. So sorry for not contributing before. Not a great time, but ran out of time to do this. Not show...

Oh no Janet. I hope you heal quickly!

P.S. I still haven't found the intermittent error where scores are not updated. Anyone who writes code will know that when you see a comment in the code like "No need to do X because Y will have taken care of this" your instincts are that the developer knew this was possibly not true, oth...
