Stay on target! Stay on target!
So close guys, another amazing day on the rowers yesterday. We were on pace for a million through about the 15th of this month. Then we started slacking off a little bit. But the last few days we’ve really dug in, and now it’s almost a cake walk to the finish line.  Let’s finish this up in style!

Meters needed today: 19,151!!!

Awesome job yesterday, everyone! We put in 71,743 meters! Definitely helped catch us up to where we need to be. Two more days, we can do it! One million meters is easily within our grasp!
Also, a great shout-out to Will Githmark! This little man spent almost an hour on the rower yesterday and logged 8,000 Meters!!

Okay, we fell just shy of the needed meters yesterday. But it was a great effort. We had 19 rowers, 18 of which put in 1k or more. Five put in over 5k each! We’re close. Coach put up 1k as part of the workout today, so let’s get it done!
Needed daily: 52,300 Meters.

Well, there is good news and bad news. The good news is that there was a sheet of rowing results from 1/23 that was hiding. It had quite a few meters on it, so I’ve added it. The bad news is that we only got in 36K meters yesterday. After adding in the missed meters and yesterday, we now need 52K meters every day for the next four days. Now aren’t you glad I found that missing sheet? Get on those rowers!

Hi Coach Andy,
Did the Miami half marathon in 1:54:43 – about 8:45 minute miles. If I wasn’t doing crossfit I know there was no way I would have done that well. Thank you for all your coaching and pushing me to work hard. It has done wonders for me. My endurance was great all the way to the finish line. My legs (which did little running prior to the race) were my weak spot but they held up. I am still a bit sore today. If my legs feel better in the morning I will be in at 7:30am or so tomorrow. If not, I will definitely be in Friday morning.
Sincerely,
Ken Adelglass

Okay guys, it’s time to dig in if we’re going to make a million. Five days left, 290k meters to go! That means we need about 58,000 meters a day for the next five days! This can be done! We’ve fallen off the pace the past week or so, but we can pick it back up. I know I’ll be putting on a 5k every night. Just gonna make myself do it. Do you have it in you?
