Re: LADIES banter/training/motivation thread ??
That's impressive to be even thinking of rowing only 4 weeks after knee replacement

62 yrs old, 80kg, 5' 10"
44Mm metres rowed. Re-setting the bar much lower now. Getting too old and brittle for this malarky

Thanks Plummy. It was either the rower or a spin bike. My anatomy isn't built for a spin bike; so the rower won by a country mile. Getting on the rower was relatively easy - getting off more of a challenge.

Wow, Tina and Carol,
I just decided the other week to get back on the rower. Today I checked this page. Yes, many life's interruptions have happened but here we all are!
I wish you both speedy recoveries.

I am not getting older, just better. (not bad for a 76 year young lady)

Re: LADIES banter/training/motivation thread ??
Thanks Ann - the knee is recovering remarkably well - but somehow I've screwed up my lower back, so my rowing life is on the back burner, yet again. Still, onwards and upwards - it can only get better. Hope all is well in your world!!

Hi Tina,
Peter and I will be in Adelaide in May after we get off The Gahn. It would be great to see and meet you and Wayne when we are there.
If you can, PM me on this thread and we can work out the details.
If you write on this thread I will realize there will be a PM for me.
