The rules are simple:
- Row 1 mile (1609 metres) on a C2 rowing machine during the month of October and submit your time, current weight and currebt age either a) in public on this thread or b) in private to myself by private message. (No weights submitted privately will be made public by myself.)
- Current weight is a weight reading that is no more than one week old at time of the attempt.
- You can submit as many attempts as you like, as long as they are always accompanied by your current weight and age (which may be different from earlier attempts).
- The deadline for submissions is Thursday 1st November at 12pm GMT.
- Times will be adjusted according to the details found here: http://concept2.co.uk/rns/adjustment
- Males and females will be scored seperately.
- Points will be awarded based on adjusted times, actual times, and number of entrants. Adjusted times will be worth twice as many points as actual times. As an example, if ten males submit a time, the fastest actual time will score ten points, and the slowest one point. The fastest adjusted time will score twenty points, and the slowest two points.
- Points will be combined to determine the overall (male and female) winner.
- A leaderboard will be posted each week during the month-long challenge to let you see how you are faring, with a final leaderboard posted shortly after the challenge ends.
- Each Weight & Age Adjusted Rowing Challenge will be a standalone challenge, i.e. there will be no running total of monthly points.
