"About me" - a place to introduce yourself

[Claudius]

Welcome Jayne, I hope you get back to your old level as quickly as you would like, and I join Jon in saying you can ask any question you want!

Hi! I'm Eric from Kristianstad, Sweden. I realized that perhaps I should introduce myself since I enjoy being part of the Free Spirits for C2s challenges and using the meterboard. I started indoor rowing in 2021 as a low-impact cardio exercise alternative after a heart scare, but nowadays I mostly do it because I enjoy it (or to keep from sliding down the meterboard )

Great to hear from you Eric. Personally I find that logging my training (generally on the "What training have Freespirits..." thread and on the Pete Plan thread in the Training Forum) is also a great motivator. It is a mutual support group and seeing others training helps to spur me to keep going. Also there is the CTC (Cross team Challenge) each month which allows a friendly rivalry with others of a similar pace as well as the monitored "Participation" to encourage us to do these diverse challenges and log them for the team. While this includes people whose ergs I am not worthy to wipe down, there are plenty of more modest performers (myself included). This month was our choice and we have set 3 intervals of 6 mins with 2 min rest between each to celebrate 18 years of FreeSpirits.

Hope I haven't scared you off and to hear more from you when you have something you wish to share.

Best wishes
