Michael Schramm is over 1m - well done.

Our hummingbird (Mrs Blank) is also over 3m and shows no signs of slowing! :lol:

Well done to her.

We also have a number of team mates within a few 10's of thousands of milestones who will no doubt tip over the mark very soon. Keep those metres coming!

Slapped wrist for me :oops: and congratulations to:

Boris Z who is through 1m by virtue of his marathon.

Also Jonathan Sage is over the million mark and may not have been recognised yet.

Well done to you both. 8)

The fault here is entirely mine for not paying enough attention to the board although it does have a huge influence on my time.

I have realised there is every possibility that I may cross 1 million for the season in my race at BIRC - and may plan my rowing for that eventually. It might make me try and get there a bit faster!

Well done to you both.

New millionaire is Gary McCollim - congrats to him.

Another is Aurel Wisse who is trying to fool me by blasting through the milestone and moving quickly on! Well done to him.

Likewise Mr Pope who joined and tried to tell us he was a beginner with no time and a new baby! Now shows no signs of slowing down!

Apologies to anybody I've missed.

Thanks - to be honest before Gregor's email all those months ago I thought that 1 million a year was impossible in full time employment. Now I have blasted through in five months (I did nothing in May). Amazing what motivation and having enthusiastic team mates does for you.

Thanks everyone for your kind words. I must admit, I did not realise. I only looked at the metre board because I saw the banter on Seasons Best's ( What a fantastic option ). Very impressed with that ( JLemon, Excellent job ). Just finally got back to getting on my erg after 4 crap days ( Dont laugh, 2 lots of points on my license on the same day, been in hospital with my smallest and not slept for the last couple of nights, finally got home on Tuesday, was half asleep and reversed car into my wifes and smashed in all the sides ) - Little one is fine now so I can look back and laugh :lol:

Happy christmas everyone.

Rob, looks like you've had it tough. :?

Really hope the little one is feeling good with no long term effects.

Puts the rowing and the metre board in a nice perspective.

happy to help if I can in any way.

Cheers for that. You could help, Could you row another 3 million metres for me before may :)

Cars and points I dont really care about. Little one is nearly 100% so I'm happy. Its that time of the year ( as you probably know yourself ) when the kids pick up everything. The great thing is that he is so young he wont remember.

Just looking forward to christmas. Got a lot of rowing to do to reach my goal ( 6M ), will have a crack ( allways look on the bright side of life !!!! heh heh! ).
