Aboard their rowing boat the team had millions of calories worth of specially formulated dehydrated meals that would give them maximum calories. But for Rod, it was a simple pack of Tesco noodles that did it for him. 🍜 • A meal he referred to as 'pure heaven'. 😇 • And whilst we now need to go and recalibrate what heaven looks like - it does highlight an important point; food aboard the boat is really important from an energy perspective - but it's also really important from a psychological perspective. 🧠 • Sure, Tesco noodles are not as calorie dense as the other meals aboard - but it was a little bowl of happiness for Rod, and as he sat there, with his heavenly meal, watching the sun go down, with this three friends...that boat was a very happy place to be in deed. ☺️ • One of the reasons for sharing some of these insights is to remind everyone that the team are still raising money for Get A-Head Charitable Trust and Meningitis Now - if you enjoyed following the team and didn't have a chance to donate - now is the time!

Get a headstart on your spring cleaning by doing a deep declutter of your home now! Go through your closets and drawers and even your basement or attic. If you haven’t touched something in over a year or you don’t like it anymore, consider tossing or donating it. Depending on how big your home is, this could seem like an intimidating project. To make it less daunting, start with one room at a time and do a little bit at a time. #deepclean #organize #homemaintenance #homeownertips #winter #hometeam4u

As you probably remember, the team were rowing in pairs, doing 2 hour shifts, 24 hours per day. ⌚ • This meant that when they finished their shift they would need to clamber into the cabin, get their wet weather gear off, cook, eat, do any navigation work, send any imagery back for social media, perhaps convert some sea water into drinking water, perhaps fix anything that needed fixing, and THEN get some sleep. 😴 • This meant that under their normal shift pattern, they never got more than 90 minutes sleep at a time. 🤯 • But, did you know, that when the going got tough, they needed to row three up? 🚣♂️🚣♂️🚣♀️ • In this image the crew were rowing against a strong current. The ocean looks relatively calm but the water was being pushed in the opposite direction to Antigua. This meant three of the team had to row at the same time, and that meant that they got even LESS sleep! 🥴 • It's absolutely wild that they were able to continue in this manner at all, but doing it with a grin on their faces makes it all the more amazing! 😁 • One of the reasons for sharing some of these insights is to remind everyone that the team are still raising money for Get A-Head Charitable Trust and Meningitis Now - if you enjoyed following the team and didn't have a chance to donate - now is the time!

Tanka Fund is dedicated to aiding rancher partners in returning Buffalo to their ancestral lands by providing necessary infrastructure. A crucial aspect of this support involves helping ranchers construct specific fencing to safely manage their Buffalo herds. One Native rancher is close to completing his fencing project, which will allow him to care for up to 150 Buffalo. Financial contributions are needed to help finish the remaining 5½ miles of fencing. The cost of fencing is approximately $34 per foot, and donations are crucial to help complete the remaining fencing this summer.

Ride report on the Horribly Hilly Hundreds 94 miles, 8,100 feet elevation gain, 3700 Calories burned. 7 hours riding time. Goals achieved: 1) 150 km completed. I skipped 10 miles of the route including 3 climbs. So I did not do their full '150' which was 104 miles (167 km). My initial goal was 100 km, so riding the longer route and completing 150 km was win for me. 2) I did not walk up any of the climbs. I did have to stop and take a few 2-3 minute breathers on the steepest parts of the last two climbs. These were at about 15%. A very difficult finish. 3) This was the biggest elevation gain ride I have done in 15 years. Notes: 1) The 33 x 36 gear was sufficient, but several times I was shifting and hoping for the 44 tooth cog that I did not have. My guess is that no matter what gear I had, I would have always wanted one bigger. 2) Modern technology was very important for me on this ride. I really needed it to gauge my effort, manage my pace, and know to back off on some early climbs to save my legs for the later hills. If you've read this far, thank you. Please consider donating to my Bike MS fundraiser for Multiple Sclerosis. That happens this coming weekend. My legs should recover by then: https://lnkd.in/gPvFc5YD
