ME ---> :D

So true. I got addicted to the sugar-free French vanilla iced coffee at McDonald's over the holidays. The large has 150 calories! I love it, but am now only allowing it once per week, on the same day as my long workout. On other days, I drink coffee at work, where I use Splenda, and I've cut my creamer to 1/4th of what I…

Ann, that's awesome! I am jealous! I'm just happy if the waves don't tip me out of the boat.

I row comparable distances, and I've found that around the 6-7K mark is when the ole butt blister starts becoming a problem. I don't think you should have to power through this kind of discomfort, though. Experiment with the anti-chafe gel. I've tried BodyGlide, which works fine, but it doesn't apply very smoothly, in my…

Novice rower here. I took an introductory class a little over a year ago, then bought a used Virus Turbo II Classic. I'm still trying to master the basics. The weather here in the Houston area over the first half of this year did not cooperate with my on-water interests (I kayak, too), but I took my scull out into…

Was looking at the Challenge results. MFP Friends finished 33rd overall out of 377 teams. We had 4,632,368 total event meters by 26 team members for an average of 178,168 meters per member. Not too shabby! On a side note, have you looked at the names of some of the other teams? Some are quite amusing. Ancients. Luna-tics.…

I think an hour at a time is about my limit on the erg for now. Not trying to bust any records. Just trying to maintain good form throughout. Everybody's doing great!

Gave you all a headstart. :-P

Bring it! LOL. Lord, I'm tired. Planning to do 8k today, which will bring my challenge total over the 100K mark... and then I'm resting this weekend. Sort of. I want to take my scull out, but I don't do significant distance on that. I'm still learning how to steer. Whoever said that erging is "just like" rowing a real boat…

I thought he dropped me from his friends list because I hadn't logged on in a while. (I couldn't get in on my work pc, which is where I usually do my goofing off on MFP. lol All that's been fixed now.) Sorry to hear that he felt the need to deactivate his account, but I wish him continued success on his amazing journey.

I bought a used Virus Turbo Classic II rowing scull for little more than a song last week. I need to finish cleaning it up, which I can do now that the weather is cooperating, and get her in the water to see how she rides. After I finished my sculling class, I thought ... hmmm, I dunno, this is a lot of work ... I may just…

I love sweets, too! (Who doesn't?) I try to satisfy the cravings most of the time with fresh fruits. I try to limit my out-and-out indulgences -- like chocolate cake -- to no more than once a week. In between, if I just gotta have it, then something small, like a Hershey's kiss, usually satisfies. What I've discovered is…
