Hi All! Just wanted to start a thread for us. Thanks for signing up to be on our team!!! I thought it might be a good idea to get together and try to come up with a team name and just a chance to get to know one another. Also, we're currently at 13 people. So, we need two more. If you have any friends that might be interested in getting on our boat, please have them send me a message. The challenge starts on Friday, so the sooner we find someone - the better! I'm looking forward to working with all of you!!! I know we can win this!!!

Here's our list of team members. I am pretty sure I friended everyone, but if I missed someone, please send me a request.

    It's basically a challenge to see which team can burn x calories in the shortest amount of time. The guy that's running the game calculated how many calories he burns to row a mile. So the teams (consisting of 15 people) log their calories and when plugged into a spreadsheet, it converts how many miles we've "rowed". The first team to row around the world wins!

    Wow!!! That was quick!!! Final two rowers have been recruited! Closed group!
