Two are in the 90s for km Three are in the 70s/60s (I'm in here) The rest are catching up in the 30s etc I'm only doing 20 mins a day so I expect someone doing more will be making big jumps. If we keep up this pace we will surpass 1 million as a team Get it

I probably have over 4M Meters on this pair: Rowing gloves I used to get blisters under the callouses. lol. One of the best “upgrades” were the gloves. . . I haven’t had a problem since. Another good purchase for me was the EndureRow seat. The OEM seat used to rub my tailbone raw. lol. This is all from the rower: Attached File |

Rowing shorts from JL Racing There was another poster here in a rowing thread that referred to the shorts that he used as “Ken doll shorts”. That was because it smashed down his man parts pretty good but made it so he didn’t sit on the boys. lol. |

That'll slow you down a bit, feel better soon! I think this is the first year I've been healthy through the whole challenge, usually I have covid or some crud this time of year. |

I took yesterday off.  Getting back to it today. I'm like 34 minutes away from hitting 250k for the month. You guys with the heart rate monitors, which ones connect easily to the C2s? I've got an old Fitbit that I could break out but I'm reading that the data sharing isn't smooth. |

I use a myzone switch. It can run on the arm or chest strap. After finding the arm mode has about 1 minute response time to HR changes I run it exclusively on the chest strap. I also have an older MZ-3. They both have bluetooth and ant+ connection. I find ant+ much more reliable with the PM5 I've got an app called HR monitor on my phone, it connects to either HRM through bluetooth. I haven't used the myzone app for a while, it averages all data into 1 minute bins. The HR monitor app stores 1 second readings. Both the myzones will also store data which can be downloaded later by the myzone app. They don't have analysis like sleep tracking and such, but they let me log HR data on the PM5 along with stroke data. and the HR monitor app is a nice backup, plus I can export the data to excel. ETA: In the past I used Polar and I'd still be using them except I got a deal on the myzone through my gym. My old Polar chest strap ran for a freakishly long time, which was good because the batteries were non replaceable. |

I turn on the PM5 and then Ergdata on the phone and it automatically connects. I wouldn’t use the rower without one now.
