Crazy In Love Erg Marathon

Sunday, Feb 11, 2024, 8 am CST

You have to be Crazy In Love to erg 42,195 meters! For those who want to test the depth of their devotion to indoor rowing, we’ve got a virtual event for you! Row 42,195 meters (a marathon) in 24 hrs.

TWO WAYS TO COMPETE:

Do it virtually online in one sitting with the maniacs on the ErgZone app. Those competing live via ErgZone will have their results ranked on Concept2.

Set it up independently offline, take rest breaks as needed, and email us your results.

Racers competing independently offline must submit a screenshot(s) of their monitor with a total of 42,195m rowed on 2-11-24 as proof of completion to: info@foolsfestsprints.com

Make sure the date on your monitor is correct! We will only be accepting results from monitor screens dated 2-11-2024.

The time stamp on your email will determine your Love Rating Score. (For example, we start at 8 am, and you finish at 11 am, that’s 3 hours. You are one SERIOUS rower.) If you have multiple screenshots, send them all in one email when you have completed the marathon.

If you decide, “THAT’S ENOUGH!” and break up with your erg, send us the screenshot(s) of how far you made it. You still get your can coolie, AND you’ll get a Dear John letter as well!

The official start time of this marathon is 8 am CST for all racers, online and off.

Love Rating Categories:
