Come hell or high water

| filed under: , , , ,
This is where I should be feeling frustrated about the fact that we're half through with the 2015 Concept2 Holiday Challenge and I am only 70,983 meters in out of my goal of 200,000 meters by midnight, the end of Christmas Eve.

This is where I should be feeling frustrated about the fact that we're half through with the 2015 Concept2 Holiday Challenge and I am only 70,983 meters in out of my goal of 200,000 meters by midnight, the end of Christmas Eve.

I'm 35.5% through. But I am also getting stronger as well. And more used to spending time on the seat and I have my 90-minutes of entertainment sorted.

Tonight it was Self/less with Ryan Reynolds and Sir Ben Kingsley.

I was most entertained because the moment I decided to take a rowing selfie to illustrate this post is the same moment cheesecake heartthrob beauhunk Ryan Reynolds is recovering from being shedded --  on a very Model D.  

You need to see it to believe it and I have proof.

Anyway, I have become nocturnal so it's actually 1:14 AM as I write this while cooling off before heading home and catching some sleep.  

Wish me luck.

While I'll be satisfied with anything over 100km, I'll be completely stoked if I can meet or better 200km by the last moments of 24 December.
