Great job to the many members who completed the 2011 HOLIDAY CHALLENGE!

Now, on to the 2012 VIRTUAL TEAM CHALLENGE!  
(link to official page)

The Details

This is a team challenge... our team, Grand Rapids Rowing, collectively rows as many meters as possible during the month of January!

We rowed over 600,000 meters in 2011 with just 6 people participating... how will we do this time around?

    How to Participate

    1. You must have an Online Logbook at concept2.com (it's free) and all of your meters must be entered into your Online Logbook. If you don't already have one, visit the Online Logbook home page, click Register under New User and follow the directions.

    2. Make sure to do the following two things by January 15:
      a. Affiliate your logbook with "Grand Rapids Rowing Club" (here's a PDF of instructions if you need help).
      b. Make sure to join the Grand Rapids Rowing erg team by clicking on the "Teams" tab in your online logbook.

    3. After you row, record your meters in your Online Logbook. The Online Logbook automatically calculates your meters during the challenge. The deadline for logging your meters is February 3, 2012.

    4. Row, row, and row some more!

    5. Don't forget, you can always access your Online Logbook simply by clicking the  button at the bottom left of this website (on every page!) 

      You do not have to be a member of Grand Rapids Rowing Association to participate in this or any other erg challenge (although we'd love it if you are!)

    Incentives and Rewards

    Anyone who participates in the challenge will earn:

    • A downloadable certificate of achievement.
    • A downloadable heat transfer design so you can make yourself a sweet shirt.
    • Everlasting pride and better health!

      See you on the ergs... and good luck!

      Don't have access to an erg? Members do at the YWCA... or, check out Concept2's Indoor Rower Finder.
