Well, I know it's LZ, but I've always had difficulty remembering their song titles. They're generally not as straightforward as they could be... :D

Re: Name that tune

LoL - you guys jumped all over this one. Peter gave us the next line, but not the name of the song. Plummy gave us the name of the song with an extra word, and JonT got bonus points for making me laugh.

Over to Plummy who had the correct title within his string of words... ;)

OK fellow members of FS1. I really am struggling health wise at the moment. I intend to put in a time but it will be terrible. If we could fill eight seats on top of mine that would be fantastic.

That's right, Jill - played off Peter's Cher title with one by her younger version and her ex! Sorry for the delay. Been kind of busy for a retired guy.... :D

Thanks for the call-out, Peter! This one was significant for me as it's my very first Million-meter season since I bought my erg in 11/2011. Hopefully more of these in store! :)

This time was no accident - After several weeks of building up to it along with a handful of failed attempts, I finally managed to achieve a PB in the elusive 10K today. Finished nearly 8 seconds faster than my previous best with a 39:49.5. With this row, this is officially my "Season of PB's&q...

Re: January CTC: Double December

Yep, still hate sprinting. I felt like I was drowning with about 250m left, but managed to up the pace slightly in spite of it.

New PB time of 3:34.6

I’ll enter it later as the CTC site still hates this iPad.
