Hi Godfried,
Belated congrats on EIRC 7:14 - no story to tell ? See from your cryptic post above and the Taff Team list that you are now next door to Mike in NY. A work-related permanent move ?
Welcome Bernard Chippy's brother to Taff Attack. Looking forward to witnessing some brotherly rivalry if you are anything like as competitive as Chippy
All quiet on the Aussie front, just ticking along keeping my nose in front of Carla and waiting for Chris to knock off some more of my times.
Niall - 1 million Challenge a done deal yet ?

Hi Martin,
The Million Metre Challenge is very close to completion. I've got 7,700m to go. Got a phone call last week from the Communications Manager in work who asked if I'd be interested in completing the challenge live on TV
. Being the
shy, retiring type I said I'd be up for it so I've had to go on a "Go Slow" and
just keep the metres ticking down as I'm waiting for confirmation of the date.
I've asked if it can be before Christmas as I don't want to drag it out too long
(it's already very frustrating limiting my sessions to 7-8K; today will be
5K).Through work, they've also arranged some a news item in the local paper (the South Wales Echo) for which I had my photo taken last week for the story (see below):
At my gym they've just replaced all the Model Cs with Model Ds so I'm getting used to the new features (quite like the power curve display at the moment!). Have really struggled this week to do any decent sessions so think I must be coming down with something (I'm the only one in my family who hasn't been hit by a bug that's doing the rounds); wouldn't think for a second it could be anything to do with my ability
.Last but certainly not least, a big welcome to yet another Redmond family member (how big is Chippy's family
?). As
Martin quite rightly says, if Bernard is anything like Chippy in the
competitiveness department, I see interesting times ahead. Great photo Niall - looks like plenty of power in that
frame of yours ready to be unleashed on that poor erg.
Hope you are right with the pre Christmas TV timetable else you may well be doing 1K sessions at super slo-mo pace just to fill in the time
Carole Mac's
charity website worked a treat - definately the way to go if Sophie's qualifies
and it could be worked into the script ?
Keep healthy Mr Megastar, a fluey appearance is not a good look on TV

I've been pretty quiet lately. Fankly, I'm going through on of those "can't be arsed" phases, and my logbook reflects that; since my half marathon PB on the 10th, I've only logged 6 sessions, doing no rows on the 11th, 12th, 14th, 16th, 17th, 18th or 20th. =/
Still, the 11k on Tuesday and 10k yesterday took me past the 200km for the Holiday Challenge. Part of the problem is that the garage is just so cold and damp; a very unappealing place to go, particularly as the effect of the damp air on my lungs/chest makes it that much more difficult to exercise.
Must try harder... =)

I have the same problem Daren, not damp, but cold garage. It's going to be cold until March at least, so you need to get it sorted. Get a heater and get organised, switch it on to warm up the garage before rowing. I have to have mine on a timer so I can row on returning home from work.
I get problems if the garage gets too cold, chest just closes up, performance drops.
You can't slob around until March, Manchester GP isn't far off, Get off your arse and get back on top of it, you used to be rowing 3 times a day, maybe you need a new goal.
Aye, I know. I think a new goal is something I need.
Another part of the problem is that I've rediscovered gaming (Quake 3 and
Counter-Strike:Source), and sitting in a warm room at my PC seems better than
freezing my nuts off in the garage.
As you say, Manchester GP is less than two months away though. I haven't done anything today, yet, so I'll go out there this afternoon and get something done. I won't get much chance at all tomorrow (wedding anniversary so we're going out in the evening, and we're taking the kids to see Toy Story on Ice in Manchester during the day), then Christmas Day (family to visit) or Boxing Day (family visiting) will both probably be limited time. I would think that'll be the same for most, though!

Daren,
How about a 2K PB at Manchester? Do you think a sub 6:55 is realistic?
Judging by previous comments you've made about what motivates you and your short attention span, it certainly sounds like you need a new challenge.
Manchester GP seems like a very suitable timescale to work to.
So you know what to do. As Steve says, get a heater in the garage and then there's no excuses.
You're Mr PB, you've got a reputation to maintain
and colleagues/friends to support and motivate you.

You're Mr PB, you've got a reputation to maintain

I am as I haven't tried a 2k since BIRC. I could have a go this afternoon, but I
think the damp weather will preclude me from really performing at my best
anyway. It's not going to get any warmer before Feb 13th though. =) I'll nip to
Argos and get a heater of some sort once the Xmas rush is over. I had to go to
ASDA today to get some dog food, and it was heaving.

Thankyou for all of your welcomes to "Taff attack". With
all of the local people that i know who are in"Taff attack", the likes of
Dykie,Grumpy,Chippy,Rickster and valley boy, it will put pressure on me to get
fit, that is a good thing as i have become lazy. I am just having a (do my own
thing for the minute ) just trying to get used to rowing. In a couple of weeks
time i will seek some advice and take it more seriously and get fit. look
forward to having a crack with you all. I am off today so had a row this morning
going to have another one now.

Congratulations Niall, top effort Mate!
Daren, Stop bitching, start rowing!!! I row in my garage too, but I like the way the phlem congeles in the back of my throat every morning, and the pleasent feel of a cheese grated lung! The very worst part is walking down the alleyway in my pants and vest - hurling abuse at the two frigging locks you have to take off to get into fort knocks, Im also consious its summer in Austrailia and Bonzo's just finished at the gym after another workout with veluptuous vanessa - man how the other half live!!! Sorry for poor smelling!!!
Cheers Mate
Chris
35 centigrade yesterday, garage was more like 45 C ! Gym
conditions perfect - V'ess rowed a gutsy 7:41 for the Gym 2K challenge when told
by moi that her 7:46 was too slow and she should be on 1:55 pace !! Not bad for
a 30 -39 LW on level 6 (usually 8 !) with no rowing experience or
technique.
What about that FM Daren, once into it you'll appreciate that soothing breeze wafting gently off the Atlantic on a pommy winter's night
Well done to all Taffs who did the Holiday Challenge. I've got 1 day to do 115K to get there, better sign off and get started after a quick trip to the beach for a refreshing dip.
Festive greetings to all from warm, balmy sunny Oz,

Just returned from the gym and did a PB for the 60 minutes, now 13600, up by 150 metres so delighted with that. Be grerat if I can get to the 14000 sometime in January. Now done 234,000 in the holiday challenge

Just done 15K, only 100K to go. Luckily we're 12 hours
ahead of the Concept2 timepiece so I've got half a day up my sleeve
Embedded in that 15K was a nice little pressie from Santa - a 6:55.7 2K to put me ahead of the gym instructor boyos (6:56.9 their best shot). Or so I thought - on closer inspection of the challenge board lurked a 6:52 Somebody must
have emerged from the deep recesses of the weights section and banged it out
yesterday. Oh well, back to the strategy drawing board to find another 4 secs.
As if its not enough to have Chris elbowing past on a regular basis .....
Enjoy your Christmas pud when seeing to that 15K Carla
Time to get outside for a dose of bronzitis on yet another long, hot lazy Summer day. Ah, will they never end ...

Hey gang!
Merry Christmas!
I'm glad my erg is not in the garage....brrrrr
Martin, you will catch up and pass me while I take my Christmas break, I'm sure! But you don't need me to motivate you anymore--not with the ladies who frequent your gym, from the sound of it!
Just finished the 200M challenge, I feel really great about it! I am looking forward to being able to do some better quality rowing after Christmas... I think I need more recovery time than this Challenge allowed to row any PBs. I'm so tired!!!!!
Some of my "mixed junk" rows make me think I have some good improvements to look forward to. To break up the monotony I did a lot of 12K rows with 100m sprints every 500m; later changed that to 200m sprints every 1K. I'm able to get the split down much faster than I used to, and can do the sprints at 10MPS and 1:50. So the 10mps training seems to be finally bearing some fruit. When I speed up the rate to sprint, it feels natural and right to still pull 10 MPS. I'll continue with the 200m sprints for a while, then up it to 300, 400, until I feel Ok about doing 500m intervals. Then I'll face the dreaded 2K......
Have a wonderful holiday, everyone!!! I hope Santa puts everything you want under the tree!

I've been a bit too busy to say much on the forum.
Next year I will be talking with you from Leeds, Yorkshire - next door to where I was born in Huddersfield - as I have a new post with a financial services company.
Hopefully, that means no more living out of a suitcase, as I have for the last eight years with Deloitte and BT, amongst others. IBM almost convinced me to stay consulting, but no.
I'm really looking forward to rowing more and I feel Santa will drop me off a Concept2 soon, very soon.
Niall, enjoy the press coverage. You deserve it for the effort you have made for an obviously worthy person. I really enjoyed our rivalry and it is that which has helped me more than anything else this year.
Fellow Taffs, thanks for tolerating me and I look forward to resuming contact in the new year.

I really enjoyed the rivalry too Bernard. Your stubborness
certainly pushed me along and resulted in me doing some
sessions when I really didn't feel like it or had no intention of rowing (prior
to seeing you'd put in some more metres to pass me). Looking at the Team Standings I get the feeling we'll be pushing each other along for a while yet and I very much look forward to it.
