Eric Hagberg	Upper Montclair NJ USA	Cornell Lwt Crew '86-'90 Nereid Boat Club '04-	6,458,108
John Neufeldt	Tucson AZ USA	After 27+ yrs long-distance running, switched to rowing. The "before" (start) and "after" (finish) photos are a slight bit of hyperbole, but it is in fact true that regular aerobic activity such as rowing helps a person to feel younger. Participate in c2ctc.com & nonathlon.com. Rowing renews youthful feeling, lowers bad cholesterol, raises good cholesterol, lowers blood pressure, stimulates growth of new brain cells, elevates basal metabolism, boosts immune system, benefits every organ in the body, adds time to your life expectancy, cleanses the pores of your skin, and gives you the same emotional uplift that runners experience from long distance running ("runner's high"), to mention just a few benefits	5,507,645

Robert M.L. Snapper	Bensafrim-Lagos Algarve PRT	Dutch born but living and working in Portugal since 1977. Took up rowing on Concept2 in April 2001 on the advice of my old track & field friend Cees Keij, after having been a sport addict most of my life. Rowing now replaces other sports like athletics -road cycling - tennis as it is much less harsh on the old joints. Fascinated by the way we can monitor results being a number freak. Not looking forward to 2.000 m. races(understatement)but with hard training managed to beat the best un-official Portuguese time in my age-group which I first equalled and in 2006 lowered to 7:02,0, and now have done 6:56,9 but feel more comfortable on the longer distances. Managed to do my first marathon in September 2005 in less than 3 hours and was ranked on all disciplines. Managed to do an average of 10.000m. a day over the 2006 season. Photo was taken in May 2009 after a 60min. test. Have now moved into the 60+ age group in August 2008 and it is a bit easier now to get high up in the rankings.	394,399

Abraham Heward	Phoenix AZ USA	I've had my Model C since Aug. of 1999, but didn't start getting really serious about rowing until Oct. 2004, when I retrofitted the new PM3 to it and got the RowPro software. I've been logging at least 18Km per week since then.	308,900

In the beginning I didn't get to use it, as much as I would have liked, but now I am getting into the habit of 3-4 weekly sessions. I am currently using the interactive 2k training program, that can be found in these pages. If anyone have any other suggestions, please drop me a note. 03/06/2006 Just rowed my first 2k test in the training program (have been out with nemonia), and exceeded my expectations. Got a 7.13 - now a sub 7 doesnt seem so far of!!! 08/07/2006 After the nemonia business, I was actually hit with a throat infection, so restarted the program about a month ago (no didn't take a 3 month brake from rowing cause of that, just didn't use the program). At the moment I feel like I could do a new PB, but I'll know before long. I recently purchased the the Suunto T6. I looks very interesting, allthough it puzzles me that I am almost unable to get into epoc zones 4 and 5 - even though I push myself to the high-end of the paceguide in the c2 interactive program (and also feel like it is exhausting). 24/10 2006 Did a involountary 2k a couple of weeks ago. Was actually trying to do a moderate paced piece, but felt ok midway, and did a new PB (7.08) - it even felt like I could have done better with preparation. very pleased :-) If I could just manage to quit smoking, I am convinced that I would go sub-7 in a heartbeat!!! Michael 2k: 7.08 6k: 23.45 Season goal (C2 2007 season) is to break 7.00 for 2K. Second is to break 18.40 for 5k 13,414 Heleen Zalmstra Stroe   NLD 10,788 Tom Kessler Calgary   CAN 10,000 Johnny Rochford Santa Clarita CA USA Cross training with Concept2, Nordic Track and running to stay in shape and drink beer at my favorite micro brewery, Wolf Creek (join me for a pint).
